Opal Nera

Italian Herbal Liqueur with Licorice Character

Opal Nera is a dark Italian herbal liqueur best known for its strong anise and licorice profile. It belongs to the same general family of Mediterranean “amaro-style” spirits, offering a bold, sweet-bitter herbal taste often enjoyed as a digestif or in mixed drinks with water or ice.
