Mozart White Chocolate Liqueur

Appearance: Milk. Just like a glass of high-cream milk. Aroma: Vanilla, caramel, the faintest hint of nutmeg. Taste and Texture: Creamy, buttery, vanilla with a little hint of caramel. The texture is pleasantly full but not thick or oily. It's sort of reminiscent of Bailey's, but only if you removed all the whisky and cocoa and based it on vodka. A pleasant but not particularly notable liqueur. There is a lecithin/cocoa butter flavour but it's very mild and only particularly noticed on the aftertaste. The palate is mostly a creamy vanilla experience that is similar to plain vanilla ice cream. There is an old fashioned sweet that used to be very popular in Australia called Jersey caramels. They are cubes of fudgy toffee about 3/4 of an inch square with three layers - vanilla in the middle and caramel on the top and bottom. This liqueur tastes very much like a Jersey caramel. Mozart makes a range of liqueurs featuring chocolate. We've tried three of these now and the results have been extremely variable. The gold-foil wrapped milk chocolate liqueur is really nice, this is just "meh", and the strawberry chocolate liqueur is diabolically awful. There's still two more to try in their range, but I don't know if we can be bothered. Mrs Cascode, who is a big fan of creamy liqueurs, declared this "nice but forgettable". "Average" : 77/100 (2.5 stars)
