Averell Damson Plum Gin Liqueur 750ml

WE92
Averell is an exceptionally bright liqueur - the fresh-pressed juice of heirloom Damson Plums married to a botanical gin marked by juniper, warm winter spices, bay leaf and ginger. Delicious with seltzer, sparkling wine or ginger beer, in both hot and cold black tea, or on its own, over ice. The history of the Damson dates to the dawn of civilization. Prized by the Romans and Crusaders, its cultivation spread throughout Europe and later to the orchards of North American colonial settlers who appreciated its nervy character: rich, intensely tart and slightly bitter. The Damson stands today as an endangered variety from a bygone era.

"This gin-based liqueur made with local damson plums is unique and different. The vibrantly cherry-red spirit has a warm, fruity scent, like a cross between sweet vermouth and cherry juice. The flavor is more tart than sweet, with a lingering earthiness on the back of the tongue. Though a little too tart for straight-up sipping, it's a dynamite addition to the arsenal for adding flavor and color to gin-based cocktails, such as fizzes and punches."
