Licor 43 Liqueur (1LT, 31.0% Vol.) Licor 43 is a liqueur produced in Cartagena, Spain, and comes from a secret family recipe that includes 43 natural ingredients, including fruits, Mediterranean citrus fruits and selected botanicals. The selection of the ingredients is followed by maceration with water and alcohol, fusion, rest for 9 months, cold treatment for 5 days, filtering. The complex but harmonious taste profile can be perceived on 4 levels: the reminiscence of Mediterranean citrus fruits, the spicy touch of coriander, the sweet nuance of vanilla, and the floral notes of lemons and oranges.
When the ancient Romans conquered Carthage, they discovered a deliciously aromatic elixir made from local fruits and herbs called Liquor Mirabilis. To avoid temptation, they banned its production and consumption, but the Carthaginians continued to do so in secret. That elixir inspired the current Licor 43 recipe.
