Think of it. We start with the same great fruit that we use to make our
fabulous eau de vie, and then fortify with our fabulous eau de vie. The fortification
means that the overall alcohol level of the liqueur is at eighteen percent,
which is lower than straight eau de vie, but high enough to prevent further
fermentation. The eau de vie does more than just create a more stable environment
for the 10-12% residual sugar content; it turns the juice into this amazing
fruit liqueur, with powers far beyond those of ordinary mortal fruit. It’s
like fruit with extra soul. It’s the Über Fruit. It is so Aqua
Perfecta.
Like
sucking berries through a straw:
concentrated bursts of juicy tang.
This is a headfirst dive into raspberry.
This is Aqua Perfecta.
tasting notes:
Clear and pale gold as sauvignon blanc, the poire liqueur looks deceptively gentle
in the glass; on the palate, it has all the honey and heft of sauternes. Every
mouthful includes vanilla, pink grapefruit, and a lush overlay of fresh pear
that lingers all the way down the silky finish.
St. George pear liqueur is a perfect match for the kind of cheese that makes
most dessert wines whimper in fear (like that Stilton sitting in the back of
your refrigerator, plotting a kitchen takeover). For a killer pear martini,
rinse your chilled glass in our poire liqueur, and then fill with iced Hangar

that lily:
the ripest pear in a puddle of
clover honey.
This is the heart of a blissed-out Bartlett.
This is Aqua Perfecta.
tasting notes:
Its cabernet color and opulent, rolling-in-raspberries aroma only hint at the
framboise liqueur’s complexity on the palate. Neither sugary nor jammy,
it has the tart-sweet balance of fresh berries, and a swaggering finish with
notes of pomegranate and blood orange.
Our raspberry liqueur drinks like a big, off-dry red, and pairs
perfectly with chocolate. (Regular visitors to the tasting room tell
me it’s great over ice cream.) It also makes a seriously good
champagne cocktail
