Long Island Spirits Launches Sorbetta™
Long Island Spirits, Inc. announced today the availability of its new family of spirits called Sorbetta. The Sorbetta family is extremely rare in quality and are uniquely the first potato-based liqueurs crafted in the United States.
The Sorbetta’s achieve a farm to bottle freshness in their taste profile by using only individually hand peeled and macerated fresh fruits combined with pure cane sugar that is patiently crafted in small micro-batches from the spirits of LiV Vodka. The Sorbetta Family of Lemon, Orange and Strawberry is distributed by Winebow Inc. and is currently now available for sale in finer retailers and drinking establishments in the following states New York, New Jersey, Washington DC, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Massachusetts and Illinois.
Although technically classified as a liqueur, Long Island Spritis considers it a new kind of spirit category that will fill a gap that exists for mixologist’s between the typical over sugared syrupy liqueurs and the countless synthetic tasting flavored vodka’s on the market today.

“Responding to the burgeoning cocktail culture movement, Sorbetta is crafted with all natural purity of fruit flavor in mind,” extolled Richard Stabile, Founder of Long Island Spirits. “Each flavor manages to capture that fresh picked taste experience”.
“Sorbetta is a welcome addition to a category that is crowded with economy brands that are too sweet and artificially flavored” applauded Dale DeGroff a.k.a. the King of Cocktails. “Finally an American liqueur line that can compete with the French and Italians”.
Tasting Notes
Lemon Sorbetta: The fragrance is pure, fresh and sultry; morning in an Italian lemon grove. There is an elegant silky feeling on the palate; with just the proper amount of sweetness that makes for an amazingly refreshing finish.
Orange Sorbetta: A brilliant orange blossom nose. Delicious orange decadence that quickly fills the mouth with crisp, clean, zesty flavor. Extremely well balanced with an authentically fresh squeezed relaxing smooth finish.
Strawberry Sorbetta: A remarkable bouquet that ignites all the senses with its clean, alluring and rich strawberry flavor. Pure vine ripened fruit shines through on the palate with an uncommonly regal finish.
“Mixologists are increasingly seeking locally crafted, high quality artisanal spirits. The Sorbetta’s provide a remarkable fresh taste which allows them to create some truly unique new cocktails” added Scott Tallon, Spirits Director of Winebow.
“Sorbetta is a mixologists best friend in today’s dramatically increasing demand for artisan cocktails at a valued price. The quality is outstanding and Sorbetta enhances a cocktails flavor without adding that sugary consistancey.” said, Jason Barlow, General Manager, Honu Kitchen & Cockails.
