BC Spirits "Spirit a Day" #46 - Victoria Distillers Cacao

Victoria Distillers Cacao

Victoria Distilers are more famous for their Empress 1908 Gin, they also make some fantastic little oddities like this Cacao using Sirene Chocolate. Very multidimensional with bitter, dry cacao notes and sweetness from the husks. If you use this in a cocktail, you may need some sugar as it’s not overly sweet.

Nose - Cocoa powder and high cacao chocolate

Taste - Like a 65% cacao chocolate bar. Rich, but not overly sweet chocolate with bitter dry cacao notes
