Strega Alberti Benevento is a historic family-owned distillery from Benevento, in the Italian region of Campania, founded in 1860 by Giuseppe Alberti. Since its establishment, it has remained in the hands of the same family, which, over five generations, has preserved the original recipe and traditional production methods.

The company is best known for its famous herbal liqueur, Strega, which is still produced in the same historic distillery located near the city’s railway station. Strega is distinguished by its golden-yellow color, derived from saffron, and its complex aromatic profile created through the infusion of around 70 different herbs and spices sourced from various parts of the world.

Notable ingredients include mint from Sannio, fennel, iris from Florence, Apennine pine, and Ceylon cinnamon. With an alcohol content of 40%, the liqueur offers a balance between herbal freshness, gentle sweetness, and subtle menthol and spicy notes, making it an ideal digestif as well as a versatile ingredient in cocktails and gastronomy.

Today, Strega Alberti Benevento remains a symbol of quality, tradition, and Italian identity, with its Strega exported and appreciated worldwide.
