Long San, Vietnam
Star Anise
4.84 reviewsWhole star anise pods with a deep, sweet licorice aroma. A pillar of Chinese five-spice and Vietnamese pho, and a warm note in braises, poached fruit, and mulled wine. A little goes a long way.

Whole stars, mostly intact
We toast star anise for every batch of broth. These are large, whole, and full of seeds. Very few broken pieces in the 20 lb box, which is rare. Strong licorice aroma.

Used in our amaro and a seasonal gin. Organic certification mattered for our label. Consistent between the two boxes we've bought.

Good quality for braising liquid and master stock. Better than what we get from the restaurant supply, and the price for 20 lb is fair.

Beautiful stars, very fragrant. Delivery took a bit longer than quoted during the holiday rush but they kept us informed.
