Distiller Notes
Maurin Quina is a sweet white wine fortified with an infusion of wild cherries, quinine and measured amounts of cherry brandy, lemon and cherry juice. It is versatile, elegant and subtle, an aperitif that is lovely on its own, and is perfect as a mixer. Maurin Quina has a delicate red hue, and bright cherry flavor with a quinine backbone. The subtle wine base elevates the array of wild cherry, with light lemon and almond notes.

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.
