    Coffee from the Canary Islands' volcanic soil meets Licor 43's classic vanilla sweetness - Baristo is the Spanish liqueur bridging morning coffee and evening digestif.

    Ekspertens beskrivelse

    Licor 43 Baristo is a Spanish coffee liqueur consisting of the original Licor 43 infused with quality coffee from the Canary Islands, bottled at 31% ABV.

    The coffee used in Baristo comes from Agaete, a gorge in the Canary Islands with rich, lush volcanic soil that gives the coffee beans a special character. By infusing the classic Licor 43 - known for its vanilla sweetness and 43 different ingredients - with this coffee, a liqueur emerges that unites the coffee's roasted depth with Licor 43's creamy, sweet base character.

    Smag

    The taste reveals notes of freshly roasted coffee with vanilla and hints of sweet fruit, stemming from the original Licor 43 recipe. The liqueur is full-bodied and creamy, and works fantastically on the rocks as well as in drinks and cocktails.

    Legend has it that the Romans once banned the local golden elixir of Cartagena - locals kept making it in secret from recipes passed down through generations, and from one of them came Licor 43.

    Expert's Description

    Licor 43 (Cuarenta y Tres) is a Spanish liqueur at 31% ABV from producer Diego Zamora in Cartagena, spiced with 43 different ingredients - hence the name.

    The liqueur was created in 1946 by the Zamora siblings together with Emilio Restoy, following a secret family recipe still known to only a few family members today. Its sweet flavour of vanilla and citrus makes it remarkably versatile and easy to use in drinks - try it in coffee, neat over ice, or as a Ginger 43, mixed with ginger ale and lime.

    Taste

    The taste is sweet and round with a distinct character of vanilla and citrus, giving a lightly tangy finish and making the liqueur versatile in both drinks and desserts.
