About Armin Stark
Armin Stark is ST. NICOLAUS' fernet, named for the distillery master who founded the company's Liptovský Mikuláš refinery in 1867, and made in the classic Milan bitter style from the company's own fine grain alcohol in which herbs, flowers, spices and various fruits are macerated for at least a month according to what the company describes as Stark's original recipe. It sits as the company's premium bitter alongside the more everyday Demänovka.
