Tempus Fugit Spirits Creme de Cacao A La Vanille 750mL
Tempus Fugit Spirit's Swiss made Crème de Cacao is based on a 19th century recipe, cross-referenced in English and French. As terroir is important for all plant materials, and the original source of cacao for the best quality of Crème de Cacao was cacao from Venezuela and the best source of vanilla was from Mexico, these ingredients were specifically sourced to reproduce the best quality of Crème de Cacao.
An essential purchase for budding home mixologist and professionals alike. This is without doubt the ultimate Creme de Cacao, having received rave reviews around the world!

Tempus Fugit Spirits Creme de Cacao 750mL 24% ABV
During the process of creating Tempus Fugit Spirits Creme de Cacao, raw cacao is distilled and the distillate is then macerated with additional cacao and crushed whole vanilla bean. The process not only gives a depth of character, but also naturally colours the Crème de Cacao a medium brown. The term 'Crème' was applied to these styles of spirits due to the creamy mouth-feel caused by the addition of a high concentration of sugar, in our case we use cane sugar. The finish on our Crème de Cacao is quite aromatic and round with intense, dusty-pure cacao flavours and light wisps of vanilla.Awards

Tasting notes
Nose: Off the charts sweetness and beaniness, with unequal amounts of cocao (two-thirds) and vanilla (one-third) fragrances in the opening nose; the powdered cocoa comes to the forefront in the second inhalations, lusciously so. Palate: Amazingly cocoa-like and buttery at entry; midpalate is spot-on dark chocolate-like, but neither bitter nor semisweet; it's just flat-out sweet!Recipe: The Grasshopper
