Top Shelf Italiano Flavouring

Italiano is a sweet, golden Italian liqueur of vanilla, aniseed and liquorice. A favourite among staff. You will also need Base C.

HOW TO USE THE FLAVOUR:

Shake the bottle well and add the essence and 780ml of 40% alcohol together with Base Pack C. Mix well then top up with water to 1.125 litres.

Alternatively use 300ml of sugar and 100ml of liquid glucose as a substitute to Base Pack C

WHAT TYPE OF SPIRIT TO USE.

The best spirit to flavour will be a neutral one, like vodka. A higher quality vodka will not have the same harshness as a cheaper vodka. Alternatively, you can make your own neutral spirit to flavour – this will certainly be the cheapest option and also the most rewarding.

EQUIPMENT NEEDED TO DISTIL YOUR OWN SPIRIT

The equipment required to make a spirit includes basic brewing equipment, which can be found in the ‘Starter kits’ section of our website. You will also need either a Still to distil your alcohol from a spirit wash (highly recommended), or you will need a high alcohol kit. There are two choices of stills on our website, the AirStill and the T500.
