The Tunbridge Wells Liqueur Company Maple Whiskey Liqueur, 50 cl

Product Information

This bourbon is awesome. To avoid the risk of an overly sweet product, Knob Creek cleverly combined their already fantastic bourbon with maple and just a little bit of smoke. The smoke smooths over all the rough edges and makes for an unforgettably nuanced experience. From the great Canadian north comes a Crown Royal offering you won’t want to miss. The maple notes compliment the sweet burn of the rye and create a well-balanced and surprisingly smooth sipper. This is one maple-flavoured whiskey you won’t want to miss. Make sure you have all your ingredients handy, including good cold ice and coarse salt for the rims.

Give it a ginger bite. Use ginger bitters instead of cinnamon, with ginger syrup in place of the cinnamon A shot of flavored whiskey will give you the best understanding of its taste, but there are other ways to drink them. Use them in a hot toddy, a mint julep, an old-fashioned, or a Manhattan. If you’ve enjoyed broadening your horizons, maybe open yourself up to the idea of other tried and tested flavor combinations. Most of the providers in this list don’t stop at maple and offer other twists on their original whiskey. The flavor profile has a light bite of minerality while still being smooth and drinkable at 35% ABV. The maple flavor is fairly sweet (leaning towards butterscotch) and combines with cinnamon and vanilla notes to produce a well-balanced overall flavor.

If you’re drinking with friends and family, a sessionable maple liqueur may be a safer bet than a stiff bourbon that could take grandmas head off. Friday night with friends may benefit from the extra bite, rather than a weaker drink that says pancakes over party. Many seasoned whiskey drinkers turn their noses to the sky at the mere mention of "flavored whiskey"—and it's easy to see why. Most expressions on shelves at your local liquor store are less than good, despite being immensely popular. It's a unique and unexpected twist on a typical margarita that will leave your guests wanting more. Plus, it's easy to make, so you can whip up a batch in no time.

Maple Syrup - This might seem odd but it takes the place of the sweetness from orange liqueur (Grand Marnier or Cointreau). It blends up smoothly and pairs well with whiskey and lime. However, there are people who have concerns about consuming raw eggs. No worries; making sours without eggs is fabulous. Maple whiskey can be broken down into two main groups- American bourbon-based maple whiskies, or maple liqueurs made with Canadian rye whiskey. Canada produces 80% of the world’s pure maple syrup– with 90% of that coming from Quebec specifically- so it’s no surprise that maple whiskeys are more common and established there than in America.However, there is one ingredient that has been gaining popularity in recent years – maple syrup. And when combined with bourbon, it creates a flavor profile that is simply irresistible.
