About Tempus Fugit Fernet Del Frate
Tempus Fugit Fernet Del Frate is a premium Fernet liqueur produced by Park Street Imports, bottled at 44% ABV (88 proof) and available in 750ml for $55.01. Crafted in micro-batches at Switzerland's Matter Distillery from a historic hand-written recipe honoring Frate Angelico, a monk renowned for herbal elixirs, it features a complex blend of botanicals including aloe, anise, angelica, gentian, mint, myrrh, quinquina, and saffron. What sets it apart is its intensely bitter, herbaceous profile akin to Fernet-Branca but with refined eucalyptus and herbal depth, making it a standout among modern Fernets like Fernet Francisco—pungent yet balanced for mixing. Ideal for cocktail enthusiasts, bartenders seeking authenticity, and amaro aficionados who appreciate digestifs with historical pedigree. In its category, it rivals classics like Fernet-Branca or Fernet-Vallet but shines brighter in cocktails due to its artisanal production and nuanced bitterness, elevating drinks without overpowering.
Tasting Notes
👃 Nose
The aroma bursts with intense herbal complexity, dominated by eucalyptus and minty freshness. Angelica and gentian provide earthy undertones, while subtle saffron and myrrh add exotic spice. Anise lingers delicately, hinting at the liqueur's monastic herbal heritage.
👅 Palate
Extremely bitter with a robust wave of botanicals flooding the mouth, balanced by aloe's slight viscosity and gentian's rooty depth. Mint and anise deliver a cooling menthol kick amidst spicy quinquina. The full-bodied mouthfeel coats the tongue, demanding a sip rather than a shot.
✨ Finish
Lingering bitterness fades into a dry, herbal echo with persistent eucalyptus. Clean and memorable, it invites another taste.
