N/AMORE INFORMATION:
Schoemanati Cherry Liqueur- Smooth and medium-bodied, this cherry liqueur opens with a burst of ripe, natural cherry flavor, carried by the subtle warmth of grape-distilled spirit. The palate is silky and rounded, revealing layers of fruit — from bright cherry flesh to deeper, slightly tart notes reminiscent of black cherries. A gentle sweetness balances the spirit’s warmth, leading to a soft, lingering finish.
Dark Chocolate - Rich brownies, flourless chocolate cake, or dark chocolate truffles enhance the liqueur’s deep cherry notes. Vanilla Ice Cream or Gelato - Serve as a drizzle or side sipper — the cherry flavor cuts through the creaminess perfectly. Aged Cheeses (e.g., Gouda, Brie, or Goat Cheese): These cheeses bring out the liqueur’s fruit and balance its sweetness with creamy or sharp textures. Roasted Duck or Pork with Cherry Glaze - Ideal for main course pairings — the liqueur can even be used as part of the glaze or sauce.
