'Spirits' (AKA 'hard liquor') is the term for all distilled alcohol - in fact, the name 'spirit' came from alchemists who believed the vapor of distillation was a 'spirit' of the original material. Technically 'spirits' and 'liqueurs' are different - spirits have no added sugar, while liqueurs do - but they tend to be lumped together. Virtually all known spirits were used as health tonics or elixirs at some point in history, but transmuted into good fun drinks over time. Many countries have their 'national' drink - gin, whisky, schnapps, grappa, ouzo, soju, vodka, rakia/rakija...there's quite a list. Experiments began with sugars and flavours - resulting in limoncello, cynar, Benedictine...that's an even longer list.

Deep gold mahogany in colour. Citrus fruits and crushed almonds, with a subtle hint of marzipan and chocolate, rise to the occasion. The impact on the palate is intense, but as the warmth of the tongue helps to release these special attributes of citrus, sherry and exotic spices, this classic spirit quickly surpasses all expectation.
