We had the white I think.
Very nice. I would happily drink that over regular Sambuca. Heard the Black version is amazing.

It is - and soo smooth. But the Zappa black is harsh. Do yourself a favour and try the Lupini. A bit more expensive (about R10 or R15 more) - but so worth it.

Zappa=cleaning fluid. When they offered Lupini to me I refused it based solely on my experience with Zappa. Was I wrong!

I still enjoy Zappa, because that is what I was used to before trying Lupini, which is nice. My dad makes his own Sambucca with aniseed oil, cane syrup, colourant and cheap vodka, which does not go down badly either. :)

"Integrity" and "integer" both contain a Latin root meaning "whole; complete." The root sense, then, is that people may be said to be acting with integrity when their beliefs, words, and actions have a sense of unity or wholeness.

@GDI - there are many reasons - this is but one of them.
