North Star
North Star Coffee 'Soop' Liqueur 50% 70cl
- Details
Founded by Iain Croucher in 2016 - who had previously worked for independent bottler A.D. Rattray - North Star Spirits source top-quality whiskies, rum, gins and other spirits that provide a more eclectic portfolio that you might expect.
As an example of this oddball approach, an earthy coffee liqueur produced in Italy is then bolstered with a good amount of single malt whisky from the highly regarded Campbeltown region, before bottling at a chunky 50% ABV. AND the eye-catching label emulates a certain branded tin of soup...
I'm a sucker for a coffee liqueur, but I'm always interested to see how sweet or earthy each liqueur can be. Here we have a brilliant balance of dark earthiness against a sweeter note - but there's then a hint of sea salt from the Campbeltown influence. And the heightened ABV gives even more of a kick on the finish, making this a next-level ingredient for an Espresso Martini - although you'll prbably want to add a touch more simple syrup to offset that kick!
And to be honest, the price point considering the quality and ABV is frankly ridiculous!
