Årø Vingård Æblelikør Danish Paradise Apple Liqueur 35 cl 16,5%

On the small island of Årø in the Little Belt, where apple trees line the vineyard's rows, small aromatic paradise apples are picked to become this golden liqueur. It's a bottle that tastes of Danish summer and one island's proud orchard.

Expert description

Årø Vingård Apple Liqueur Paradise Apple is a Danish fruit liqueur at 16.5% ABV, made from paradise apples grown on Årø Vingård's own plantation on the island of Årø in Haderslev Fjord. The small, intensely aromatic paradise apples are pressed and processed into a liqueur with a beautiful golden colour and a natural, concentrated apple sweetness only these small apple varieties can give. The vineyard, which today runs both vineyards and a larger apple plantation, has specialised in turning the island's fruit into wines, cider and liqueurs with local identity.

The liqueur is gently produced so the paradise apples' fresh character is preserved, and its moderate strength makes it pleasant to enjoy both neat and in cocktails.

Taste

The nose offers fresh apples, a touch of blossom and ripe fruit skin, while the palate is round and soft with a fine balance between natural sweetness and a light acidity that keeps the liqueur fresh throughout.
