Tasting Notes

Nose

Earthy vanilla and caramel aromas — warm and indulgent with honeyed depth

Palate

Big salted caramel with pepper and vanilla — milk chocolate, red chilli and honey notes, the preserve-maker's touch evident in the quality of flavour

Finish

Lasting botanical warmth — the caramel fading to gentle spice and vanilla

First Impressions

Riverside Spirits Salted Caramel continues Christine's jam-making heritage — natural salted caramel with vanilla, black pepper and honey in a gin liqueur at 20%. Handmade in Cheshire in small batches.

Tasting

The nose is earthy vanilla and caramel. On the palate, big salted caramel with pepper, vanilla and milk chocolate. The finish is lasting with botanical warmth.

The Bottom Line

Riverside Salted Caramel earns a 6 for indulgent gin liqueur with genuine craft quality. Best as a dessert accompaniment — with vanilla ice cream or mixed with cider for a toffee apple cocktail. Family-made comfort from Cheshire.
