In the Glass
Appearance
Brilliant, crystal clear.
Aromatics
The nose is incredible and one of a kind. The exotic scents of rose, dairy, cardamon, pistachio, and cinnamon with hints of sweet citrus and bergamot.
Flavor
The palate echoes the nose with the addition of a silky, creamy texture that acts as the perfect delivery vehicle for the complex floral and spice notes.
Intensity & Texture
Medium-bodied with perfect balance and an ever evolving collection of spice notes that linger for minutes.
Cool Factor
We are clearly in the era of great Liqueur innovation and the Somrus is among the elite in this new wave of Liqueurs.
Value Grade
When you consider that it's absolutely amazing and intriguing you will happily hand over the modest $25 asking price.
Analysis
Consider a Liqueur crafted in Chicago with pure dairy cream from Wisconsin, exotic spices from India, and Caribbean Rum. The idea is challenging enough before actually getting the proper balance that we find today in the bottle of Somrus. This is a truly unique Liqueur and I've tasted my share!
How to Enjoy
I would simply serve this chilled, perhaps on ice but with not much more. The balance of flavors found in this Liqueur are so perfectly proportioned that it requires nothing else. However, it is great served in freshly brewed Earl Grey tea.
