Distilleria Varnelli Spa. Via Girolamo Varnelli, 10, 62034 Muccia (MC). Founded in 1868 by Girolamo Varnelli, the Varnelli Distillery is now at the fourth generation and is run by four women. The founder lived in the heart of the Sibillini Mountains, now a National Park, and, studying medicinal plants of Marche Region, thought about many liqueurs recipes, including the famous Amaro Sibilla, much used as antimalarial and antipyretic in the past.Anyway, the great invention of the family was made by his son Antonio Varnelli that, interpreting and refining the widespread prescription of Marche anisette, created the "Varnelli": strong, elegant and unique anise-flavored drink that quickly became the flagship of the Varnelli Distillery enough to carry on the family name.
