Becherovka is a Czech herbal liqueur produced in Karlovy Vary for over 200 years. It is made from a secret recipe that combines approximately 20 herbs and spices from around the world.
While it’s a pale yellow in color, it ultimately presents itself more like a dark amaro, bittersweet and biting. The end result is quite intriguing, but it’s hot and alcoholic, characteristic of Eastern European spirits, and lacking the kind of balance that you get from bitter Italian digestifs.
