The folk at Ableforth's know a thing or two about creating cockle-warming, crazily delicious drinks, and this is the perfect solution to see you through those dark and chilly winter days!
We all know that making the perfect mulled wine for your guests is fraught with problems – frankly, it's a mulling minefield. Knackered or unbalanced spices, suspect citrus notes, and the inevitability that you'll serve your most discerning guest the glass with the big clump of nutmeg you couldn't filter out! Gah! The problem is, it's the ultimate winter warmer, so we have to give it a go, don't we? Well, here we have a delicious, foolproof solution – Winter Mulled Cup will aid you in achieving mulling perfection. Built upon a base of VSOP Cognac, fine Port, and a host of tinctures created from delicious seasonal spices, alongside cold distilled orange, lemon, and ginger, slosh a measure of this and a scoop of sugar into your red wine when mulling and hey presto, you're a mulling maestro.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose Mulled spices galore! Seasonal aromas of clove-studded oranges, cinnamon stick, warming ginger, rich port, nutmeg, and fresh orange peel as well with a suggestion of vanilla from the brandy.
Palate Quite thick, the palate is led by the very finest fresh orange peel. Ah, the wonders of cold-distillation! Supported wonderfully by those rounded festive spices once again.
Finish Gorgeous orange peel lingers with allspice and creamy nutmeg before a warming ginger finale!
Overall I could happily drink this neat all day, but its raison d'être is adding instant seasonal cheer to glorious drinks, whether that means Christmas cocktails (Kir Noël, anyone?) or making the perfect mulled wine.
