"I’m looking for something different to give." This is the solution to the times you have racked your brains for a gift for a group (such as table gifts, goody bags or mementoes). Your friends and guests can sample the spirit of their choice in a beautiful handbag sized replica of the full sized bottle.
Each box contains two x 5cl miniatures of Merlyn Welsh Cream Liqueur, Brecon Five Vodka and Brecon Special Reserve Gin.
Dr Jim Swan’s Tasting Notes
Merlyn Welsh Cream LiqueurRich, warming creaminess and fudge toffee is overlaid with the tingling aroma of fresh clean spirit. Gradually these give way to vanilla with hints of banana and exotic fruits and even rose petals all lingering gently in the background.
In the mouth the fruits are more intense and intermingle with the vanilla and a rich creamy texture. When swallowed the combination of fresh cream and complex spirit produce a mysterious depth which is difficult to describe but encourages the next mouthful.
Brecon Five VodkaFive stands for "distilled five times for purity", each step leaving the vodka smoother, softer and more refined. Not satisfied with that its purity is complimented with nuances of fresh fruits and boiled sweets in a flavour that is exclusive to Five. Once swallowed these leave a refreshingly clean and slightly sweet aftertaste.
In a mixer Five never dominates but never disappears either; instead its fruitiness compliments all mixers and its presence is always felt, however subtle.
Brecon Special Reserve GinTaken neat, Brecon is a big traditional juniper gin laced with coriander and revealing hints of spicy cinnamon. Add a mixer and the citrus freshness of oranges and lemons appear with nutmeg liquorice and angelica in a supporting role. The characteristic favours go well with tonic, ice and lemon on a warm summer day with a refreshing juniper in the lead role. But Brecon’s traditional heritage is equally at home besides a roaring fire on a cold night and will bring back memories of long hot summers past.
