History

Conceived in 1998 by yours truly after visiting the London Dockland-based company which was then importing Créole shrubb. I took a bottle to London's Met Bar where I asked Ben Reed to mix me my first Orange Daiquiri.

Review

Créole shrubb is an unusual liqueur made by infusing orange peel in casks of mature Martinique rum.

Perfectly balanced between sweet and tart. A tad on the simple side but, to be fair, that isn't really surprising given the fact that it's essentially a two ingredient drink.

Just finished off my bottle of the Clement. Great tasting product, but I struggled to find recipes in which it excelled (and it wasn't quite an legit substitute for Cointreau, et al). But I would buy it again and keep experimenting... I'd only 45 ml of the Shrubb left and made up the difference with 15 ml of Doctor Bird. Turned out a good drink, though I'm wondering if it fell short on its intended sweetness. I prefer bitter and dry drinks, so I enjoyed it, nonetheless.
