DISTILLERY NOTES

Produced from apples grown in the Okanagan Valley, and a blend of 14 herbs and flowers, Atemisia is a herbal liqueur with authentic alpine bouquet of flowers. Among the botanicals used, 5 herbs are from the mystical Artemisia family, from which the liqueur gets it’s name.

BC SPIRITS NOTES

To say I was excited about this would have been a huge understatament. We have a ton of amari in BC, but no herbal liqueurs similar to Chartreuse, Strega or Benedictine; until now, with the Alchemist Distillers Artemisia. A mild 50% alc/vol strength, huge herbal notes on the nose very akin to Chartreuse Vert, and it flows onto the palate with gorgeous fruitiness, balanced and complex herbal notes, menthol and herb garden notes of rubbed sage. Time to make BC Last Words.
