Tasting notes
The aroma is soft and inviting, with notes of caramel and ripe fruit reminiscent of a warm late summer day. The taste is powerful and full-bodied with distinct cask notes. Hints of oak, tobacco and old leather add depth and complexity. The sweetness is reminiscent of roasted figs and candied citrus peel. The finish is long and intense with notes of old oak and dried fruit.

The history of the house
A.H. Riise dates back to the 1800s, when the pharmacist Albert Heinrich Riise worked in the Danish West Indies. Here he began making spirits based on local ingredients and his knowledge of botany and pharmacy. Today, the tradition continues with respect for history and a focus on quality. A.H. Riise has become an iconic name among spirits lovers around the world.
