About Isolabella

Isolabella Sambuca is a classic Italian sambuca, characterised by an intense, sweet aniseed flavour and a clear, bright appearance in the glass. For the newcomer, sambuca is an easy entry into aniseed-based spirits, often enjoyed as a digestif after a meal or with three coffee beans in the glass; for the connoisseur, sambuca is a staple of Italian café and restaurant culture, where the tradition of flambéing it or serving it 'con la mosca' with the beans still lives on.

History & Background

Sambuca as a category has its roots in southern Italy, where local producers in the 1800s began distilling aniseed and other herbs into a sweetened, clear liqueur. Isolabella is part of that tradition and is made using classic methods, with star anise as the dominant flavour. The name, meaning 'the beautiful island', evokes the Mediterranean imagery of sun, sea and celebration that sambuca has traditionally been associated with.

Production & Style

The sambuca is distilled from star anise and other herbs, giving it its characteristic sweetness and strength.

Signature Style

Anise-Like, Sweet, Powerful
