Distiller Notes
This liqueur is tangy and refreshing, with a corresponding earthy component that alternates between bitter and sweet. The Green liqueur is intensely floral and herbal, with myriad aromas and flavors that attack the senses: cloves, angelica, fennel, citrus, thyme, rosemary, hyssop, cinnamon, mace, pine. The Yellow is similar to the Green but slightly sweeter. And each time you take a sip of either, you notice something new!
First prepared by 13th century Italian monks as herbal medicines and elixirs, Liqueurs are distilled spirits that have been combined with flavoring agents. A range of herbs, spices, nuts, fruits and flowers can be used, and a sweetener such as sugar or corn syrup is often added. While typically rather sweet, some examples are herbaceous or tart and pair exceptionally well with desserts or act as a delightful addition to cocktails.
