Tasting Notes: This product has one of the most interesting flavor profiles I’ve encountered. Sweet, spicy, aromatic, vanilla, toffee. There is something very familiar about it’s taste but I can’t quite put my finger on it. Moon shine it is not. It actually tastes like a sweet form of sambuca. This one definitely offers more complexities than your average moonshine grandpa whips up every so often.
Price: $19.99
Grade: B-
Overall:If you were actually expecting a genuine moonshine you probably would be disappointed. Being able to purchase it in a large beverage store should have been the first clue. Noticing it was only 80 proof should have been the second. That being said I guess the perfect description for this would be a “universal” liquor. It’s very smooth, easy to sip, and very much mixable in just about any mixer that tickles your fancy. It’s unique flavor profile makes it perfect for mixing in cocktails. In fact, many of the recipe suggestions on the Cat Daddy website take classics or favorites and replace vodka with their own product. I can’t say I’ll be rushing to the store to purchase this product but I can definitely appreciate what it brings to the table. It’s interesting to say the least.
