Amaro San Simone

Amaro San Simone is a traditional Italian herbal liqueur rooted in the pharmaceutical history of Turin. It was originally formulated by the monks of the Brotherhood of San Simone in the 16th century and later refined in the 1900s within the Officina Farmaceutica San Simone. The liqueur is renowned for its secret blend of 34 herbs and plants, maintaining a production process that honors its historical medicinal origins.

Today, the brand remains a family-owned jewel of the Piedmont region. It is produced by Amaro San Simone S.r.l. in Turin, Italy. Unlike many historic spirits that have been acquired by global conglomerates, San Simone has retained its independence, focusing on artisanal quality and regional heritage. The product is widely recognized by its distinctive black bottle and gold-and-red labeling, serving as a staple digestive in Italian culinary culture.
