Vedrenne Liqueur de Banane (Banana) Liqueur (700ml)

Made with a combination of banana distillate and banana juice, the base spirit is produced from sun-dried bananas via a Charentais still, steam-heated at a low temperature to ensure the fruit's full aromatics are preserved. Hints of ripe banana skins and banana cake are evident on the nose, while the palate is seductively sweet and creamy offering medium-definition flavours of over-ripe banana and banana cake. Naturally suited to rum, popular cocktails include the Banana Daiquiri, Banana Boulevardier and the Dirty Banana. In cooking, add a splash to your pan when caramelising bananas (alongside rum and butter) for an ultra-rich sauce. You can also drizzle it over vanilla ice cream, or stir it into banana bread batter before baking. 25% Alc./Vol.

Notes from the producers... Scent: Voluptuous note of flambeed banana. Taste: Intense and fragrant with a hint of vanilla.
