Of course I do - my grandfather used to bring it back from Italy. It's wonderful. Strega means witch in Italian. It's a steam distillation of herbs and spices from Europe and the Orient. It gets its yellow colour from saffron; then it ferments in oak vats. It is added to ice cream, fruit salad and is used in cake preparations.
Need I say that I love it
