Blume Marillen Apricot Eau de Vie 375ml

DISTRIBUTOR NOTES:

"Blume Marillen—”blossom of the apricot”—captures the lovely bouquet and taste of the Klosterneuburger apricot found in the Wachau region of the Danube Valley. The Destillerie Purkhart “Blume Marillen” is famed for its delicate floral bouquet and a long, elegant finish. More than 9 pounds of apricots are distilled for each 750ml bottle. For over 40 years the Purkhart family has produced this lovely eau-de-vie that embodies the apricot orchard in full bloom. Enjoy on its own, in an exuberant take on a French 75, or use to provide robust aromatics to stirred or shaken drinks.

Quality eaux-de-vie such as Blume Marillen show best at a temperature between 59°F and 72°F (15°C - 22°C) at which they give off their full range of aromas. The intense perfume and combination of fruit and spice lend Blume Marillen well to simple stirred drinks, often incorporating Cocchi Americano Bianco. In sours or slings, the spice, earth and licorice notes of Blume Marillen allow for the incorporation of sweeter and fruitier flavors without producing too soft a finished cocktail."
