Cotswolds Distillery has announced the release of the first expression in its new range of Cotswolds Amaro Whisky Liqueurs.
The range is inspired by Amaro, the Italian herbal liqueur which is typically enjoyed as an after-dinner ‘digestif’.
The first expression in the Cotswolds Amaro Whisky Liqueur Collection, Cotswolds Amaro No 1, has the flagship Cotswolds Single Malt as the base to which a blend of select botanicals including vanilla, citrus and spice have been added.
The second expression is scheduled for an Autumn launch.
“I have always loved Amaro and wanted to create Cotswolds Distillery’s own Amaro liqueur”, said Daniel Szor, founder of Cotswolds Distilleryr.
“Launching Cotswolds Amaro No 1 on World Whisky Day (16 May) seemed the perfect way to celebrate this wonderful day. The vanilla, spice and citrus complement our Single Malt Whisky and we hope our delicious digestif will become a favourite after-dinner drink”.
Amaro (Italian for ‘bitter’) is traditionally produced by macerating herbs, roots, flowers, bark and citrus elements in either spirit or wine (or sometimes both), before being sweetened with caramel or sugar and has a typical alcohol content of 16%-40%. It is usually bitter-sweet and is sometimes syrupy with a thick mouthfeel.
The Cotswolds Amaro No 1 (ABV: 40%) has an RRP of £34.95 for a 500ml bottle. The drink will be available from the Cotswolds Distillery from 16 May.
Quick, delicious, and packed with world flavors!
