Colour : Pale yellow
Nose : Ample, delicate and powerful. Fruity and tangy, the fruit notes shine vividly (grape, pear, heady blossom). Aromatic plants and citrus then unfurl (gentian, lemon, bitter orange). Layer by layer, the nose reveals exotic richness (lime, pineapple).
Palate : Voluptuous even in its bitterness. Soft on the attack, it gathers strength to reach a striking freshness. Its limpid style is stripped of any superfluity. It thrives on its balance of sweetness, bitterness and acidity. The fruit shines through with exotic character.
Finish : Long and intense. The quality of the fruit remains outstanding. Both smooth and refreshing, it carries the palate into an endless wave of vivacity. The empty glass returns the pure essence of grape juice.
Capucin is a versatile aperitif, to be enjoyed in ways as varied as they are inventive. Sip it neat over ice, use it as a high-proof gin substitute in a tonic for a lighter long drink, pair it with its big brother Cognac to delight any spirits enthusiast — or turn it into a spritz with a slice of lime for an utterly addictive experience. Drinking local is good, but drinking local that's truly delicious is even better!
