Badel Lavov 1 Litre is a traditional Croatian herbal bitter liqueur produced by Badel, one of the Balkans’ oldest and most recognised spirits houses. Produced in Zagreb, Lavov is crafted using a focused blend of medicinal herbs including gentian root, sage and centaury, creating a more herbal and gentian-driven style compared to sweeter commercial bitters.
The production process involves a 30-day maceration designed to extract bitterness, herbal oils and aromatic complexity while still keeping the liqueur rounded and balanced. The result is a spirit with earthy herbal aromas, dry bitterness, gentle spice and a lingering warming finish that works exceptionally well as a digestif.
Lavov has long been popular across Croatia and the wider Balkans as an after-dinner herbal liqueur traditionally served extremely chilled. Compared to broader herbal blends like Pelinkovac, Lavov leans more focused, cleaner and more aromatic thanks to its restrained botanical profile centred around gentian bitterness.
The spirit also carries strong international recognition, including a prestigious gold medal at Monde Selection in Lisbon.
For customers searching for Badel Lavov in Australia, Croatian bitters, herbal liqueur, Balkan digestif or Croatian spirits online, this remains one of the most iconic traditional herbal liqueurs in the category.
