It is produced in the traditional Zwack Distillery in Budapest, which has been known for its secret herbal recipes since 1790 and is now run by the sixth generation of the Zwack family.<br><br>For the Unicum Barista, the base of over 40 herbs, roots and spices is retained as in the classic Unicum. These are first macerated in alcohol and then stored in oak barrels to develop their typical bitterness and spiciness. The liqueur is then refined with Italian Arabica coffee, which adds an elegant roasted note, hints of chocolate and velvety depth to the flavor profile. At 34.5% vol., it is somewhat lighter than the original, but remains intense and multi-layered.<br><br>The combination of herbal liqueur and coffee makes Unicum Barista an ideal choice for anyone looking for new taste experiences while appreciating the character of classic Unicum.&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Tasting notes:</strong></p><p>Color: Dark brown with a bronze shimmer.<br><br>Nose: Spicy herbal aromas with a distinct coffee note, plus cocoa and fine sweetness.<br><br>Taste: Harmonious, with bitter herbs, roasted coffee, chocolate and a pleasant sweetness.<br><br>Finish: Long, warm, with a lingering coffee note and a spicy, bitter aftertaste.<br><br>Zwack Unicum Barista is ideal on its own, slightly chilled or on ice.
