Caffè Borghetti
Borghetti is an Italian coffee liqueur .
history
Caffè Borghetti was invented in 1860, the year Italy was founded. In the 19th century in Italy espresso was often drunk cold in the Arabic style with a dash of alcohol. Signore Borghetti, a coffee merchant from Ancona, produced a special, own blend for his discerning clientele. This homemade mix was soon called "Caffè Borghetti" by customers.
In 1978 the Borghetti company was taken over by Fratelli Branca Distillerie SrL , known worldwide through the brands Fernet Branca and Fernet Brancamenta .

Classically real espresso is then immediately prepared, from which Borghetti Espresso Liqueur is created in a complex process that has been specially developed over 100 years.
