La Liqueur de Monin Vanille De Madagascar

La Liqueur de Monin Vanille de Madagascar is a vanilla led liqueur from Monin, the French house out of Bourges that supplies syrups and liqueurs to the trade. Its key flavour is Bourbon vanilla from Madagascar at 20% in the 700ml bottle, the pods giving a full, natural sweetness, with caramel, cinnamon, clove and ginger lending a gently spiced edge in the traditional macerated style.

The nose is intense Bourbon vanilla, creamy and sweet with a fine hint of caramel and light spice, the palate soft and balanced with a full vanilla note, a gentle sweetness and a subtle woody touch, the finish long, warm and finely spiced. In a drink it adds rounded vanilla sweetness and aromatic depth, useful in a Vanilla Espresso Martini, a French Kiss or a Creamy Colada. It also folds into hot coffee, cocoa or chai, and flavours crème brulee and vanilla sauces in the kitchen.
