BTI TASTING NOTES & COMMENTS:
Banane du Brésil – Gold Medal – 95/100
Impressively pure and rich, a decadent liqueur for sipping on the rocks, mixing, or pouring over vanilla ice cream.
Cassis Noir de bourgogne- Gold Medal- 95/100
… rich and pure, sweet cassis and honey palate with a long, earthy, briary cassis fade. Outstanding.
Mûroise du Val de Loire- Gold Medal- 94/100
Very tasty and extravagant. Will make for outrageous cocktails.
