Review and Tasting


Sampled on 06/05/2014

Appearance:

Crystal clear

Aroma:

Cooked overripe cherries with vegetal tequila-like notes, dried banana chips, caramel shortbread, old leather and faint gammon ham.

Taste:

Syrupy and sweet but with black pepper alcohol bite, more than its 32% alc./vol. might suggest. Fresh cherry skins and cooked cherry with cinnamon and faint toasted almond. Lacks the floral notes found in some other maraschinos but has an authentic cherry flavour.

Aftertaste:

Long lasting almondy finish, cherry skin with mild nutmeg, cinnamon spice.
