Joerg Meyer's quest to perfect "an adult, dry and sophisticated version of my [his] personal most iconic elegant gin classic: The Twentieth Century Cocktail" led him to develop this "superior" quality crème de cacao in partnership with De Kuyper.

Made with Indonesian arrack, Criollo cacao nibs, Ceylon cinnamon, and vanilla.

Best sampled in Joerg Meyer's 20th Century cocktail.

Review and Tasting

Sampled on 29/11/2023

Appearance:

Clear, very pale straw golden.

Aroma:

Cacao powder, chocolate cake and carob. Faint monkey nuts.

Taste:

Chocolate truffle, cacao butter, carob, vanilla and faint orange citrus. Sweet, but much drier than other white crème de cacao.

Aftertaste:

Chocolate truffle, carob and vanilla.

Overall:

A white crème de cacao that sets the standard for other liqueurs in the same category to aspire to. Perfectly balanced, clean and deliciously chocolatey.
