Drambuie®
Liqueur
If you could pick your family, a good choice
would be the Mackinnons of the Isle of Skye. They are the family
that makes world famous DRAMBUIE
LIQUEUR. Legend has it that its recipe
was brought to Scotland in 1745 by Charles Edward Stuartbetter
known as Bonnie Prince Charles. After his armies were defeated at
the Battle of Culloden Moor, Stuart took refuge on the Isle of Skye
at the home of Captain Mackinnon. In gratitude the Prince gave his
protector the recipe for present day Drambuie.
The Mackinnons introduced the liqueur to
the world in 1906. Gaelic for the drink that satisfies,
Drambuie is now made in Edinburgh, Scotland, from a base of single
Highland malt and straight grain whiskies. The blend is then infused
with a measured dose of spice, herbs and heather honey and bottled
at 80 proof.
Ultra-premium Drambuie has a striking amber
hue and a medium-weight, satiny textured body. The liqueur has an
intriguing bouquet laced with the prominent aromas of anise, dried
herbs and subtle notes of peat. The palate is an elegant offering
of spice, honey and a satisfying taste of
whisky. The finish is especially long and flavorful.
Drambuie is a classic liqueur with unlimited
creative
possibilities. For a delectable change of pace sample
