"The smooth taste of Bailey's lovingly blended with the rich, roasted flavour of coffee."

"Belvedere, the world's first luxury vodka, is authentic and natural, handcrafted the way Polish vodka has been made for over 600 years. We use Dankowskie Gold Rye along with pure artesian water from our own wells, distilling four times for a perfect balance of purity and character. The unique result is unadulterated. We think you'll love it but we know you have to try it to believe it."

"Deep golden amber color. Honey, grain husk, and raisin chutney aromas follow through on a mild entry with vanilla taffy, nutshell, and dusty tilled earth notes. Finishes with a quick caramel and pepper fade."

"Pale silvery gold color. Creamy vanilla, delicate spice, banana, and fig aromas. A soft round entry leads to a dryish medium-bodied palate with delicate brown spices, sandalwood, roasted pepper, fig, salt, and exotic peppercorn flavors. Finishes with a long fade of raisin, minerals, and pepper."

"Clear. Rich spicy aromas of citrus peel, juniper, and vanilla. A round plush entry leads to a dryish medium-to full-bodied palate with sweet citrus, exotic spices, and robust juniper. Finishes with a long balanced fade of spice and citrus. A classic gin that is tasting better than ever."

"A sophisticated orange pulp bouquet which after aeration turns much more dry peel-like. The palate entry is intensely orange peel-like yet more sweet than bittersweet; the midpalate stage is deeply orangey, sweet and sublimely juicy. Finishes ideally citrusy/tart/astringent, then turns lithe and sweet. The benchmark for all orange flavored liqueurs/triple secs. State of the art." 96-100 pts.

"The dominant aromatic feature is caramel. The palate entry features the cream/dairy element as much as caramel and nuts; the midpalate highlights the cream, the caramel flavoring, the spirit and the gentle spice. Concludes smooth, satiny and properly creamy with greater emphasis on the spice than the caramel." 90-95 pts.

"Clear. Delicate aromas of toasted nuts, white chocolate fudge, and dried fruits. A round, satiny entry leads to a very smooth, oily medium-to-full body of sweet creamy cocoa, pasty dough and minerals. Finishes with a long, creme Anglaise, pepper, and spice fade. Very nice, will make a great martini."

"Tropical fruit, citrusy and mango-like aromas. Light, acidic and very tart at palate entry; the midpalate is refreshing, intensely juicy and almost sour. Aftertaste leans heavily on the tartness." 85-89 pts.

"A leafy spearmint perfume leaps from the glass in the nosing stages. The palate entry is refreshingly minty, creamy and mildly chocolaty; the midpalate features the mint/chocolate flavoring without eclipsing the cream and the spice. Finishes gracefully, silkily and smooth." 90-95 pts.
