Luxardo Morlacco 750
Description: | The richness and full, fresh flavor bring you back to the glass again and again. Italian poet/patriot Gabriele d'Annunzio christened the liqueur "Sangue Morlacco" (Morlacco's Blood) in honor of the Morlaccos, fierce warriors of Dalmatia who fought for the Republic of Venice and defended their homeland against the Turks. Luxardo Cherry Sangue Morlacco is a liqueur obtained from Marasca cherry juice, a sour cherry variety exclusively cultivated by Luxardo fermented and matured for two years in oak vats. "Deep ruby hue. Sour cherry aromas follow through on a lighter palate with sweet red cherry flavors showing a trace of natural tartness." - Beverage Testing Institute Color: Dark red Aroma: Intense, inebriating essence of marasca Flavor: Good body, very rounded on the palate. Differing from regular cherry brandies, both through the intensity of the cherry's typical taste-decidedly enhanced here, and through the unexpected, lingering aftertaste, which makes it priceless when combined with pure chocolate Serving Suggestions: Neat, at room temperature or with ice, as an after dinner drink. In several classic cocktails, such as the Singapore Sling, Yale, Hollander Pousse Caf, Cherry Brandy Flip, the Cherry Cobbler, etc. Use as flavor in confectionery and gelato, over berry fruits and with pure dark chocolate |
