The fruit liqueurs are noted for their pure and intense characracter that capture the real essence of the fruit. Their rich aroma make them very versatile and they can be drunk neat, over ice, in cocktails or poured on ice creams, pastries etc.
The Crème de Cacao or chocolate liqueur is manufactured by percolation of cacao (cocoa) beans followed by distillation and sweetening. As with coffee, the best results are obtained by blending beans from different areas. The result is a rich, flavoursome liqueur with the powerful chocolate character enhanced by subtle hints of vanilla.
