About
Zirbenz draws its flavor and natural red color from the freshly picked fruit of the Arolla Stone Pine grown in the Austrian Alps. With a taste and nose instantly familiar, Zirbenz is exceptionally smooth, slightly sweet, and has a crisp pine floral finish. Generations of mountaineers practiced in the art of harvest work with Josef Hofer to create this artisanal liqueur. Enjoy apres ski, as an after-dinner beverage, or as the highlight to a mixer. Handcrafted and bottled in Austria by Josef Hofer, a family distillery since 1797.

Review
"The intriguing bouquet offers a pine cone, cedar, alpine-forest perfume and little else. The palate entry is intensely piny and sappy and marginally sweet; the midpalate highlights the menthol aspect. Finishes bitter with waves of menthol or camphor and pinesap. An indiosyncratic liqueur made with highly skilled distilling and blending craftmanship. $30/375ml"
