Etter Zuger Kirsch is a premium Swiss kirsch (cherry brandy) from the Etter distillery, made from black "Mountain Cherries" grown in the region around Lake Zug. It is known for its intense and pure cherry flavor with subtle almond and floral notes, and it's aged in glass demijohns to develop its complex character. This eau de vie is traditionally used in fondue and can also be enjoyed neat, as an aperitif, or in cocktails.
90-95 points Wine Enthusiast: "The bouquet smells enticingly of fresh cherries, cherry pit, limestone and cooking spice. Entry is ripe and seductively sweet, with touches of spice; the midpalate explodes with juicy cherry and cherry compote tastes, supported and balanced by mineral. Concludes with a lovely rush of ripe cherry flavor. Alcohol 41%. (12/15/08)"
****Highly Recommended, F. Paul Pacult (Spirit Journal): "Impeccably pure; pewter appearance. Smells of fresh cherries as well as cherry pit, limestone/slate, and cooking spice (mace); additional minutes in the glass bring out a bigger fresh cherry presence as the slate/mineral component slides to the background; a dazzling clinic on authentic cherry perfume. Entry is ripe and seductively sweet, with touches of spice in the background; the midpalate stage explodes with juicy cherry and cherry compote tastes that are supported by a slatyt/minerally foundation that keeps the sweetness/ripeness in check. Concludes with a rush of ripe cherry taste that's satisfying and fresh. (2007)"
