Mandarin Liqueur

Distilled elixir of fresh mandarins

Tasting Notes
 

Flavours

Time slows down when you take your first sip of Mandarin Liqueur.



Aroma - Definitive aroma of mandarin skin freshly broken, along with some spicy overtones.



Palate - Memorable blend of zingy, tangy mandarin plus nicely balanced sweetness and spirit warmth with a long, long finish. 

In the Kitchen

• Crepe Suzette sauce – use instead of Cointreau
• Yin and Yang – icecream and Mandarin Liqueur
• Add a slurp to fruit salads.

Botanics

Known botanically as Citrus reticulata, mandarin belongs to the very fragrant Rutaceae plant family.

Family members include Rue – the herb, Murraya – curry leaf plant, Boronia – the intensely perfumed Australian native as well as the rest of the citrus family.

The essential oil is wonderfully volatile. As soon as the skin is broken the delightful characteristic aroma saturates the surrounding air.

The Source

Our fruit is grown on a high plateau in the hinterland west of our distillery at Erina. The elevation and mild winters combine to deliver intensely flavoured fruit.

Two varieties with complementary flavours are distilled to add complexity to the liqueur.

Therapeutics

For centuries liqueurs have been used as digestives. After dinner tonics for the stomach and its downstream affiliates.

In this fine tradition Mandarin Liqueur is a delightfully soothing post prandial indulgence. Therapeutics For centuries liqueurs have been used as digestives.
