Sweet-tart candied hibiscus lands on a delightfully delayed finish. Approximately 200 liters produced each year 42% ABV The prickly pear is known in Mexico as tuna (ahem be careful not to confuse it with the fish) and is, in fact, the fruit of the paddle cactus (Opuntia ficus-indica). Savory and juicy pink bulbs blossom at the tips of the cactus leaves; the fruit is popularly used in everything from salad to ice cream. Bright and boldly aromatic, Edenicos prickly pear unquestionably stands out amongst the most unique eau-de-vie in the world. |
