Overview

Besamim Liqueur is crafted using only natural ingredients, including pure cane sugar spirits, hand-ground spices, and mountain spring water. It doesn’t use industrial alcohol, corn syrup, artificial sweeteners, or any additives. Besamim can be enjoyed neat, on the rocks, or as a base in cocktails.

Tasting notes

Pale amber in color, Besamim Liqueur offers vibrant aromas and flavors of cinnamon, nutmeg, and clove, reminiscent of freshly made spicy eggnog. It has a silky, moderately sweet medium body and a gently warming finish with notes of frosted carrot cake and candied spiced nuts. The spice flavor is elegant, natural, and well-balanced, making it enjoyable on its own or as an ingredient in holiday cocktails.

What is Besamim?

Besamim refers to a type of aromatic spices that are traditionally used in Jewish rituals. These spices are typically placed in a container called a besamim box and are used during the Havdalah ceremony, which marks the end of the Jewish Sabbath. The besamim spices are typically smelled and passed around to enjoy their fragrance, symbolizing the transition from the sacredness of the Sabbath to the regular days of the week.
