SAMBUCA

Bordiga is a historic Piedmontese distillery founded in Cuneo in 1888 by Cavaliere Pietro Bordiga, a herbalist with extensive knowledge of Alpine botanicals and Eastern spices. For more than a century, it has produced liqueurs and spirits according to original recipes and artisanal methods passed down through generations. Many of its herbs and botanicals are hand-picked in the Occitan Valleys and processed separately through slow maceration and distillation. Remaining true to its roots, Bordiga continues to use its traditional wood-fired still, creating authentic specialities deeply connected to the Alpine region.
Bordiga Sambuca is produced entirely in Cuneo, an area renowned for the quality of its ingredients and artisanal heritage. It combines carefully selected natural ingredients, including pure Alpine spring water, highly soluble sugar, essential oils from prized star anise varieties and elderflower distillate. The result is a liqueur that captures the sweetness and warmth of the Mediterranean while retaining the elegance of Piedmontese tradition. True to its philosophy, Bordiga crafts every liqueur to delight the palate, body and mind, using only high-quality ingredients, medicinal herbs, pure alcohol, sugar and Alpine water. Its historic Italian recipes are still produced using the same original artisanal methods.
