This unusually rose-coloured spirit is not perhaps what was expected of a violet liqueur, but its powerful perfume is quite obviously natural violet. This is perfectly mirrored on the palate and the intense perfume is carried effortlessly and spread throughout. It has good length and is dry enough to be used on ice (but is particularly delightful on vanilla ice-cream).

This expression has a mass of sweetness accompanying the cocoa powder and vanilla hit. Notes of liqueur chocolates are an initial surprise, turning into softer, delightful flavours of chocolate ice-cream. Naughty and very sticky, this is best as an ingredient in small quantities than sipped alone. Nevertheless, it has a great balance of chocolate and vanilla.

Naturally a deep mahogany, this extraordinary liqueur offers a soft, judiciously sweet and honest nose with an intense note of caramelised banana skins. The palate offers sweet and sticky bananas with a whiff of menthol floating on a bed of banoffee, leading to a sweet and deliciously unusual finish. Try it over ice or in cocktails.

Classically golden in colour, the nose carries a powerful cooked orange peel with subtle influence of Turkish delight. On the mid-palate, pithy orange bitterness is assisted by herbal notes and balanced later by sweetness. This is not overly sweet and quite dry on the finish: it would make a wonderful addition to a classic Vesper.

This sweet yet dry savoury apéritif offers tobacco and wormwood. It's very sweet on the mid-palate – a creamy carpet coloured with the taste of orange peel and rooty bitterness. The finish alternates intriguingly between bitterness and the lingering orange sweetness.

The curious nose of this dark brown liqueur immediately tells of its medicinal bitterness. The “beak” does a natural double-take as the myrrh and botanicals confront it, caged in something reminiscent of gentleman's hair oil. This changes quickly on the palate when the image of medieval herbal laboratories manifests – with menthol, crushed medicinal plants and the odd spike of ginger. Very bitter and dry, it has a wonderful balance and is a thoroughly intriguing drink.
