John D. Taylor’s Velvet Falernum Liqueur

Falernum Liqueur is a rum based liqueur indigenous to Barbados. The sweetness, spice and almond character of this rum-based liqueur provides weight and texture to classic rum and wine punches. 

Velvet Falernum’s high sugar weight and supporting flavorings make it ideal for use as an improved simple syrup, adding depth to daiquiris, mojitos, and sangria. The creamy texture from almond is critical to many tiki drinks, and the spice notes compliment aged rums in old-fashioned style cocktails. Splash a little Velvet Falernum on some berries for a quick dessert, or incorporate into a coffee for an exotic touch.
