Among the few remaining amari with a wine base. Novasalus combines, in a six-month process, the plants from the surrounding Alto Adige with a dry Marsala and a unique tree sap of Sicily.
The latter is kept a secret, but thought to possibly be "manna" a bittersweet excretion from the Fraxinus angustifolia and/or Fraxinus ornus ash trees. It's harvested with a special, curved cutter called a mannarolo and then crystalized in the sun.
Manna has a long medicinal history as a cure for digestive complaints. Much like amaro itself, its origins began in medicine and persist today as pleasantly flavored digestifs.

About Antica Erboristeria Cappelletti
Cappelletti, which goes by the full name Antica Erboristeria Cappelletti, was first established in 1909. For most of their first century they were located in the historic Piazza Fiera in the center of Trento. Today they are located 20 km south of Trento in Aldeno, surrounded by vineyards and apple orchards. As the name would suggest, the firm was and is still today focused on products from traditional herbs, roots and flowers. All production is done in house by the fourth generation of the family, Luigi and Maddalena Cappelletti.
