Why Basbas Wins: The Story Behind Our Awards

Discover why Basbas is the most awarded hierbas liqueur in the world, and what sets it apart from other premium spirits.

In the world of fine spirits, medals aren’t handed out lightly. Every year, distillers from across the globe submit their creations to international competitions where judges evaluate taste, aroma, authenticity, and innovation. Out of thousands of bottles, only a handful rise to the top. Basbas hasn’t just earned recognition — it has become the most awarded hierbas liqueur in the world.

The Significance of Awards in Spirits

For the health-conscious connoisseur and the curious explorer alike, awards are more than just gold stickers on a bottle. They are trust signals. Competitions like the San Francisco World Spirits Competition or the International Wine & Spirit Competition bring together panels of experts who taste blind, ensuring no bias for heritage brands or marketing budgets.

When Basbas emerged from these lineups with medals — including multiple golds — it wasn’t luck. It was proof that our fifth-generation recipe and ten-month maceration process could hold its own against the most established spirits in the world.

Why Basbas Stands Out

So what makes Basbas an award-winning Spanish spirit? Judges consistently highlight three things:

Authenticity: Basbas is crafted in Ibiza, staying true to centuries-old traditions of hierbas while elevating the experience for a global audience.

Complexity: With wild-foraged rosemary, juniper, and over a dozen other botanicals, the layered flavor profile stands apart in blind tastings.

Balance: Unlike many herbal liqueurs, Basbas isn’t overly sweet or bitter. It’s a spirit you can sip neat, mix into a spritz, or pair with chocolate without losing its character.

What It Means for You

Awards aren’t just for show. They answer an important question: Why is Basbas better than other herbal liqueurs? The medals, combined with glowing Basbas reviews from bartenders and everyday drinkers, reinforce that every bottle delivers premium quality you can taste.

For the curious explorer, it’s a new discovery with a prestigious pedigree. For the health-conscious connoisseur, it’s reassurance that what you’re drinking isn’t just authentic — it’s recognized as one of the top-rated hierbas liqueurs in the world.

Discover the Spirit of Ibiza

If you’ve ever wondered why some bottles command more respect — and a higher price — than others, the answer is often found in their award history. Basbas is not just another liqueur on the shelf. It’s the most awarded hierbas, the result of craft, patience, and authenticity recognized on the world stage.
