Liqueurs are spirit based drinks to which flavors are
added, usually by infusion, and are often enhanced by sweetening. Sometimes
spirits are flavored but unflavored liqueurs do not exist; they are simply
known as spirits. Liqueurs are also known as cordials in the United
Kingdom and Australia. In the Scandinavian and Germanic speaking countries
liqueurs and spirits are commonly known as aquavits, schnapps (schnapps,
snaps), or washers; in eastern Baltic and Slavic countries as vodkas; and,
in French speaking counties as eau de vies and brandies.

Flavor Essence
Liquor
making is as old as civilization itself. In fact, the recipes and
techniques used have not changed much since the Middle Ages. Carefully
selected seeds, herbs, fruits and essential oils are macerated or distilled
and then fortified with alcohol and sweetened. Our essences are made
in Northern Europe where the 'old world' style of extraction is a much
treasured art.
These are all natural 100% European essences. Each
bottle flavors 750 ml of natural vodka, alcohol, fermented Super
Yeast or other alcohol. This product is twice as concentrated
as Royal Piper (Noirot is similar in this way) but our new European recipes
and essences include natural nut, fruit and/or grain oils, something competitive
products do not use. The result, "a superior finished product".
You can also use Liquor Quick Essences
to flavor and enhance all types of foods. Here's
just a few ideas. If you have a special recipe using Liquor Quick
Essences please tell us so we can add it to the list.
