Drambuie Liqueur, also known as "Prince Charles Edwards Liqueur" is 40%abv / 80 proof and was first made on the Isle of Skye . Now it is made In Edinburgh, Scotland and in other areas. In the mid to strong range in liqueurs, with a medium body, this is a beautiful, rich, golden colored liqueur that both satisfies upon first glance, and draws you in for a taste. Because it has a nice alcohol level the aroma starts out a bit warm, with the smooth smell of Highlands Scotch that is buoyed up with touches of honey, nutmeg, and a complex and intriguing blend of other spices, possibly including mint, followed up with the barest hint of tangy citrus deep in your nose. Even as a child I have always enjoyed the flavors of honey and nutmeg, as well as the mild but penetrating aroma of saffron.
As I got older I fell in love with fine single malt Scotch whisky. I think this must be why I count Drambuie as my favorite liqueur. The taste of mellow and sweet whisky is first noticed on your tongue, and then you find the sweetness rounding out to a floral honey, which is complexly rounded out with a hint of nutmeg, saffron, and a slew of other aromatic, but subdued spices. The overall sensation is of warm, spicy, liquid gold that first shimmers on the tongue, then evolves to a brown velvet nectar that seeps down your throat and into your whole head, filling it with soft warmth.
