Is a spice and herb flavored liqueur. It is made with alpine flowers, edelweiss, herbs, spices, sugar and alcohol.

Sounds yummy! And now I have Edelweiss from Sound of Music stuck in my head.
Well, I am trying to find some, so far a wine shop in Australia has a mini bottle. (Hello Lashpair?)

Our local superior wine & spirits shop (D&M Liquors since 1933) has no clue, carries something that sounds similar from Austria.

The original distiller is still in business, but all I can find is Sambuca. Isolabella (they of great advertising posters circa 1910).

Are you wondering why? Well, I just learned it was Valentino's favorite liqueur, must try it now.

Must keep looking, I'm dying to taste it.
