Description

Joseph Cartron Pomegranate Liqueur 18°: a precise expression of the fruit

With its Joseph Cartron Pomegranate Liqueur 18°, available in a 70 cl bottle, the Burgundian house offers a particularly expressive interpretation of this fruit, with flavours that are both sweet and tangy. Joseph Cartron, a house founded in 1882 in Nuits-Saint-Georges, specialises in fruit liqueurs and creams, seeking to capture a precise and faithful expression of the raw ingredients.

The pomegranate possesses a very distinctive aromatic character. Less simply sweet than some red berries, it combines a fruity sensation with a pleasant tartness. In this liqueur, this duality is particularly well highlighted. The result is a flavour that is at once indulgent, fresh and slightly tangy, with lovely hints of red berries.

On tasting, the pale ruby colour stands out for its brilliance and clarity. The nose is described as pure, sun-kissed and of great aromatic finesse. It gradually reveals the fruit’s characteristics, with a fresh and fruity sensation. On the palate, the texture is smooth and the pomegranate flavours come through with a pleasant acidity. The sweetness remains subtle and is balanced by the fruit’s natural freshness. The fruity finish is long and lingering.

With an alcohol content of 18% ABV, this liqueur has enough presence to be used as a base or as an aromatic element in numerous cocktails, whilst remaining accessible. In particular, it can add a fruity and tangy touch to creations based on white spirits, champagne or sparkling wines.

Joseph Cartron Pomegranate Liqueur 70 cl can also be enjoyed simply over ice, to appreciate its fruity character directly. It is also a natural choice for use in desserts, particularly those featuring red berries, chocolate or creamy preparations.
