Mathilde Frambois Des Landes Raspberry Liqueur

Description

Three varieties of raspberry are used to make Mathilde Framboise. The first, called Lloyd George, originates in Scotland and is particularly well known for its berry fruits. The other two berries, both from Burgundy, are the Rose de Plombieres and the Violette de Boux. 18% ABVThe berries are pressed into a puree and are then added to the alcohol base for maceration. The Lloyd George raspberries are used primarily for their bright color, while the intense aromatics mainly come from the berries from Burgundy. We find that this blend of the three varieties produces an exquisite complexity.Awards 96-100 PointsWine EnthusiastGold Medal2009 San Francisco World Spirits CompetitionGold Medal2009 Beverage Testing Institute
