Punch, with its origins in the 17th century, has a rich history as a drink of hospitality and celebration. An Italian interpretation of this beverage by Varnelli would not only honor this tradition but also infuse it with the rich herbal and botanical heritage for which the distillery is known. It would reflect a melding of cultures—bringing the global tradition of punch into the specific context of Italian liqueur craftsmanship.

Varnelli Punch Fantasia is a refined Italian liqueur with a base of special Martinica rum, selected by the Varnelli family. It's part of the Italian tradition of enjoying warm liqueurs during the winter, offering a cozy sense of well-being. The liqueur showcases an attractive bright amber color and features rich aromas of caramelized fruit, citrus zest, vanilla, and roasted coffee. On the palate, it presents aromatic flavors of coffee, caramel, roast hazelnuts, cocoa, and raisins with a smoky persistence, further enhanced by the addition of ice or iced water to bring out its bitter and smoky notes. With an alcoholic content of 35% alc./vol., Punch Fantasia is available in various bottle sizes including 100 cl, 70 cl, and 50 cl.

The Punch Fantasia recipe is a cherished family legacy, incorporating a blend of proprietary botanicals. This liqueur, celebrated for its dried fruit, coffee, toffee, vanilla, and citrus peel aroma, also has distinctive hogo notes from its rum base, offering a palate of bitter butterscotch, praline, and roasted coffee flavors. Its versatility makes it suitable for a range of cocktails, adding a spiced character to holiday drinks. Whether used as a sweetener in hot beverages or as a flavorful component in sour to fizz cocktails, hot toddy, tiki, or eggnog-style cocktails, Punch Fantasia can also be a distinctive touch to winter and holiday beverages.
