Old Kempton Lavender Malt Liqueur 50ml

Old Kempton Lavender Malt Liqueur 50ml is a miniature of the distillery's lavender liqueur.

At 50ml this is a single serve, or the makings of one cocktail, enough to decide whether the style is for you. Rob Tyson's team steep lavender heads from the Port Arthur Lavender Farm in the distillery's own malt spirit, then sweeten with sugar and colour it with butterfly pea flower. Because the base is the same spirit that fills the whisky casks, there is real texture under the flowers. Summer at Dysart House, where lavender surrounds the buildings, explains where the idea came from in the first place.

Sweet and floral, with a grainy malt weight and a striking blue-purple colour. Enough for a splash in a glass of sparkling wine or a lavender Aviation. It slots neatly into a gift box or a home tasting set, and wants to be served cold.
