Faccia Brutto is a line of Italian-inspired liqueurs made by Patrick Miller, a former chef who worked in restaurants for fourteen years before turning his attention to creating spirits that pay homage to traditional Italian recipes. Based out of the Pfizer Building in Bed-Stuy, Brooklyn, Patrick works with organic ingredients to make his amari. Centerbe, meaning "a hundred herbs", is an herbal liqueur from the Abruzzo region in Italy. Lightly bittersweet, with notes of fresh tarragon and fennel. Just as a chef would finish all dishes with a touch of salt, Patrick adds salt to all the spirits prior to bottling to round out all the botanicals and harmonize the sweet and bitter flavors.
