De Kuyper Cherry Brandy Liqueur, 50cl

Product Information

Cherry brandy takes me right back to when I was a child and those fancy liqueur chocolates would come out at Christmas, there was always the cherry brandy ones that made you feel all grown up and decadent. Maraschino Luxardo is a classic Italian liqueur and is presented in its traditional way, straw covered bottle and all. By using bitter cherries and raspberries as well as sweeter fruit, there is a lovely fresh feel to this liqueur - which is still sweet, but not thick and gloopy. De Kuyper has been awarded “Liqueur Producer of the Year” at the International Spirits Competition (ISC) two years in a row (2019, 2020).
