Spitz Kirschenlikör mit Inländer Rum

Spitz Kirschenlikoer mit Inlaender Rum is a cherry liqueur from the Austrian producer S. Spitz, bottled at 25% in a 1L format. It pairs fresh cherries with Inlaender Rum, the high strength Austrian rum style, so the fruit sits on a strong, warming spirit base rather than a neutral one. The cherries bring natural sweetness and fruity freshness, while the rum lends body, warmth and complexity.

The nose is fruity ripe cherry with a subtle rum note and a hint of vanilla, the palate full bodied and fruity with fresh cherry, a slight sweetness and a pronounced rum note, the finish long and soft with a gentle cherry aftertaste and fine rum flavour. For a buyer the rum base is the point: it gives the liqueur weight and a spirit driven backbone that survives in a mix where a lighter cherry liqueur would fade. Serve it neat or over ice, pair it with mild cheeses or cherry strudel and chocolate desserts, or use it to add cherry depth and warmth to mixed drinks.
