About this color

Sambuca sits at 27° on the color wheel with 53% saturation and 14% lightness, placing it in the orange-red segment of the spectrum. The moderate 53% saturation gives it enough color presence to register clearly without competing for dominance in a composition. Near-black lightness makes it read as a deep, absorptive tone — color is implied more than seen.

In digital environments, Sambuca is rendered as rgb(55, 34, 17), where the red channel dominates at 55, though the other channels keep the hue balanced. This warm mid-tone carries enough energy to serve as an accent without the intensity of a highly saturated warm color.

For print, Sambuca translates to a CMYK breakdown of 0C 38M 69Y 78K. A substantial black component (78%) anchors this color in print. The remaining ink channels supplement rather than drive the hue, which keeps the result stable across different paper stocks.
