Uncorking the Mystery: A Detailed Tasting Guide to Goji Berry Liqueur (35cl)
Goji berries, the vibrant red fruits touted as a Himalayan superfood, have found their way beyond the health aisle and into the world of liqueurs. Here at The General Wine Company, we're excited to introduce you to Goji Berry Liqueur, a unique and flavourful spirit bottled in a charming 35cl size.
This detailed tasting guide will delve into the essence of Goji Berry Liqueur, exploring its aroma, flavour profile, and ideal serving suggestions.
Aromatic Journey: Unveiling the Nose
As you pour yourself a measure of Goji Berry Liqueur, take a moment to appreciate its visual appeal. The spirit boasts a beautiful ruby red hue, hinting at the fruity delights within. Now, raise the glass to your nose and embark on an aromatic adventure.
The initial impression might surprise you. Unlike some fruit liqueurs that hit you with an immediate burst of sweetness, Goji Berry Liqueur offers a more subtle introduction. Delicate herbal notes emerge first, reminiscent of freshly cut grass or green tea leaves. These are intertwined with hints of sweet candy, a playful juxtaposition that piques your curiosity.
The Flavour Symphony: A Delight for the Palate
The first sip of Goji Berry Liqueur is a revelation. The initial herbal whispers from the nose give way to a vibrant explosion of fruit flavours. Imagine a delightful medley of tart cranberries, juicy cherries, and sweet pomegranates, all waltzing on your tongue. The goji berry itself takes centre stage, offering a unique taste that is both subtly sweet and slightly earthy.
The balance between sweetness and fruitiness is truly exceptional. The liqueur avoids being cloyingly sweet, instead achieving a refreshing harmony that lingers pleasantly on the palate. The alcohol content, typically around 20-22% ABV, adds a gentle warmth without overpowering the delicate flavours.
The Finish: A Lingering Impression
As the symphony of flavours subsides, Goji Berry Liqueur leaves a lasting impression. The fruitiness remains the star, with hints of cranberry and pomegranate lingering on the tongue. The herbal notes weave back in subtly, creating a complex and satisfying finish.
Serving Suggestions: Unlocking the Potential
Goji Berry Liqueur's versatility makes it a perfect addition to your drinks repertoire. Here are some enticing serving suggestions:
- Neat or on the Rocks: Enjoy the liqueur in its purest form. Pour a chilled measure into a small liqueur glass or a rocks glass filled with ice. Savour the intricate flavours and appreciate the beautiful colour.
- Fruity Cocktail Twist: For a refreshing twist on classic cocktails, try substituting Goji Berry Liqueur for a splash of grenadine or fruit liqueur. Add a measure of Goji Berry Liqueur to your favourite vodka cocktail or experiment with gin for a unique herbal and fruity combination.
- Sparkling Delight: Liven up any occasion with a Goji Berry Royale. Combine a measure of Goji Berry Liqueur with a glass of chilled prosecco or champagne. The vibrant red colour and the delightful fizz create a visually stunning and flavourful drink.
- Dessert Pairing: Goji Berry Liqueur complements a variety of desserts. Pair it with a decadent chocolate cake for a delightful contrast between the fruitiness of the liqueur and the richness of the chocolate. It also works beautifully with fruit-based desserts like cheesecake or a summer fruit salad.

An important aspect of Goji Berry Liqueur is its commitment to ethical sourcing. Many brands, including the one we offer here at The General Wine Company, use goji berries grown by Fairtrade cooperatives. This ensures fair prices are paid to farmers and promotes sustainable agricultural practices.
