Argentalia Labs

Argentalia Labs is an Italian spirits company born from Argentine roots. We research South American botanicals and ingredients from our heritage and translate them into contemporary spirits through Italian know-how: amari, bitters, liqueurs and distillates.

Our work starts with the raw material—origin, processing methods and sensory identity—then continues in Italy with careful extraction, ageing and blending, always aiming for clarity, balance and recognisable character. We develop mono-botanical and multi-botanical recipes, from intense herbal profiles to bright bitter aperitivo styles, designed for both modern mixology and refined sipping.

Argentalia Labs operates across product development, production and international distribution, supporting partners with a clear brand story and practical tools for trade: serve suggestions, cocktail applications and activation formats. Our goal is simple: bring the botanicals of South America into the world of Italian spirits, with authenticity, precision and ambition.

Amaro Yerba - Presentation

Amaro Yerba is born where the Italian amaro tradition meets the South American culture of yerba mate. It is a single-botanical liqueur: selected Argentine yerba mate is the only botanical in the recipe.

THE RECIPE
The yerba mate leaves are worked together with the palo, the woody stem of the plant, and both are lightly toasted. This gives the amaro its herbaceous, toasted and slightly smoky character.
Ingredients: Argentine yerba mate, wheat-based agricultural alcohol, sugar.

THE METHOD
Slow and essential. The yerba mate is cold-infused in a water–alcohol solution, so its aromatic profile is extracted gradually, with no flavourings or additives. The liqueur is then aged for three months in oak barriques, which bring softer, toasted, deeper notes without hiding the identity of the yerba mate. Finally it is left to settle naturally: any sediment is a natural consequence of the process.

TASTING NOTES
Nose: hay, fresh grass and tea leaves, with light toasted notes.
Palate: a firm, lightly spiced entry that opens towards honey and wood, before the characteristic bitterness of yerba mate.
Finish: long and persistent, with liquorice, tobacco, chamomile, toasted wood and dried herbs.

HOW TO SERVE
Neat, in a short, wide glass, at 15–20 °C, or with an ice cube. After a meal, or at aperitivo time in mixed drinks. Six signature cocktails created with bartender Daniele Zironi: amaroyerba.it/cocktail
