Distiller Notes
True to its tradition as an herbal elixir, Pur-likor Elderflower is made exclusively from the highly fragrant alpine elderflowers (Sambucus Nigra L Haschberg) in accord with the seasons when the elderflowers are in bloom in spring. This is a deep gold, dry-style, herbaceous elderflower liqueur with notes of honeysuckle and litchi. In hot years, the elderflowers have hints of pepper which you can find in the resulting batches. Pur-likor Elderflower is made from fresh elderflowers. It does not contain high-fructose corn syrup, synthetic flavors or artificial color.
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.
