Badia Star Anise

Badia Star Anise is a premium-quality whole spice with a distinct licorice-like flavor and aromatic sweetness. These star-shaped pods are harvested from the evergreen tree Illicium verum and are widely used in Asian cuisines, soups, stews, and baking. They add depth to broths, mulled drinks (like chai or glühwein), and spice blends. Naturally caffeine-free, they’re also valued in herbal teas for digestive benefits.
