Sorel Hibiscus Liqueur

Written By Charles Everett

Sorel Liqueur is a handcrafted artisanal spirit that offers a modern twist on a Caribbean classic. It blends Moroccan hibiscus with Nigerian ginger, Indonesian cassia and nutmeg, and Brazilian cloves, resulting in a unique and flavorful experience.

Tasting Notes:

  • Nose: Aromas of cinnamon-spiced hibiscus with subtle hints of clove and nutmeg.

  • Palate: Light-bodied with a floral note from hibiscus, giving way to baking spices and a final dried cherry exhale.

  • Finish: Reminiscent of mulled wine; serve warm or chilled.

Production Details: Sorel Liqueur is inspired by the heritage of founder Jackie Summers' grandparents, who emigrated from Barbados to NYC. Versions of sorrel date back to the 1600s, when hibiscus flowers were first imported to the New World from West Africa and hibiscus-based beverages became a Caribbean tradition.

Accolades: Sorel Liqueur has been recognized for its excellence, receiving a 94-point rating from Wine Enthusiast.
