Spirito Reale's Rhubarb and Mint Liqueur is an intriguing combination of bitter, sweet and balsamic. Produced with only natural aromas by Distillerie Sabaude, it is inspired by the Italian liqueur tradition of the 1970s. The herbaceous and balsamic hints of mint combine with smoky and intense hints of rhubarb. On the palate it is very fresh, persistent and with a pleasant bitter finish. Ideal to enjoy neat or in a blend
The production company Spirito Reale presents its Liquore al Rabarbaro e Menta (Rhubarb and Mint Liqueur), a liqueur with a flavour that is both fresh and bitter at the same time, qualities inherent to mint and rhubarb respectively. This liqueur draws inspiration from the liqueur tradition of the 1970s, a time when liqueurs were all the rage in Italy, often publicised through advertisements that have become iconic.
Liquore di Spirito Reale al Rabarbaro e Menta originates from the skilful combination of different ingredients, such as water, alcohol, sugar and some natural flavourings. The recipe has been carefully crafted to find the ideal association between the fresh and bitter aromatic sensations, the sweetness of the sugar and the smoothness of the alcohol. The liqueur is finally marketed in a beautifully designed bottle in a 500 ml format.
Spirito Reale's Rhubarb and Mint Liqueur has a deep, intense hue reminiscent of dark caramel. The nose is defined by earthy hints of rhubarb that blend with balsamic menthol puffs, all surrounded by nuances of aromatic herbs and peaty hints. The sip is characterised by its restrained sweetness, the distinct aromatic freshness of the mint and the pleasant bitter aftertaste of the rhubarb, sensations that come together in a complex, enveloping progression that rests on a lightly smoky, surprisingly balanced finish. This liqueur is ideal for those who are fond of traditional flavours as well as for those seeking new taste experiences, acting as a cross between the established Italian liqueur tradition and the style of modern liqueurs. A liqueur that is excellent served neat cold or diluted with gazzosa or cedrata to enhance its refreshing balsamic note.
