Italian Amari
Averna
Sicilian amaro, balanced sweet-bitter. The nightcap that never disappoints.
Did you know?
Born in Sicily in 1868, Averna started as a monastic recipe a friar gave to a merchant in Caltanissetta. Dark citrus, Mediterranean herbs and a soft finish made it Italy's most recognisable amaro. At Jimmy we pour it neat or on ice — always cold.

We make it at Jimmy's cocktail lab, Via Petroni 32/c — university area of Bologna, four minutes from the Two Towers. Open every evening from 6pm.
