Empirical Cilantro & Faccia Brutto Centerbe Bundle — Two Bottles. Endless Possibilities.

A bottle of Empirical Cilantro. A bottle of Faccia Brutto Centerbe. That’s the foundation for some of the most distinctive cocktails we’ve served—sharp, layered, and built to surprise.

Empirical Cilantro opens with a fresh citrus bouquet and garden herbaceousness, before finishing with dry minerality and subtle vegetal notes. Centerbe, Faccia Brutto’s modern take on a traditional Italian herbal liqueur, is packed with botanicals like lemon balm, nettles, coriander, parsley, and marjoram—macerated in neutral grain spirit and sweetened with organic cane sugar.

Together, they shine in cocktails like the Cilantro Last Word, a smoky, herbal Penicillin, and a bright, complex Naked & Famous. Or keep it simple: mix them both with Fever-Tree Elderflower tonic and a lemon wedge for a refreshingly complex highball.

• Designed for bold, herbaceous cocktails with depth

About Centerbe Faccia Brutto

Centerbe Faccia Brutto is a take on a European herbal liqueur that is both refreshing and delicious. A number of fresh and dried herbs are used in the blend and macerated in non-GMO neutral grain spirit. The dried botanicals—such as lemon balm, anise hyssop, nettles, and coriander—are macerated for a full week, while the fresh herbs like parsley, tarragon, bay leaves, and marjoram are left overnight to preserve color and freshness. The resulting tincture is proofed down, sweetened with organic cane sugar, and bottled at a rousing 45% ABV.
