BC SPIRITS NOTES

Been gone a week but I'm back. I still believe that Arbutus Distillery is one of the most underrated liqueur producers in the province. The vanilla liqueur is a perfect match for the creamy base spirit that they use. This is just a delightful vanilla liqueur, period and more pastry chefs should be looking into using it in their cooking.

Alcohol - 20% / 40 proof

Color -Off white clear

Nose - Gorgeous soft vanilla bean on the nose with hints of the base spirit which has a creamy nose

Taste - This is to the point vanilla liqueur, no fuss or muss, just a luscious delicious vanilla bean and creamy texture

Finish - Soft vanilla, creamy texture and not overly sweet

Best Enjoyed - I think every pastry chef should be using this
