Ettaler Kloster Liqueur Gelb

Colour: Pale straw. Aroma: Orange, lemon, subtle herbal notes. Flavour & Texture: Sweet and fully focused on citrus flavours. The texture is full. This is an unusual liqueur that is very much citrus in character but completely unlike triple sec or any orange liqueur you’ve ever tasted. There is a lot of herbal complexity behind it and in some ways it is reminiscent of limoncello. It is very sweet but not cloying. This has a slight similarity to the Ettaler Grun liqueur I previously reviewed here but it lacks the fresh, floral spearmint notes and instead amplifys the citrus qualities and more robust seed-spices. I’m giving it the same rating. This was from a pack of 5 liqueur miniatures we bought from Ettal Benedictine monastery in Bavaria. “Good” : 83/100 (3.5 stars)
