Description
I use the term Liqueur very vaguely on this site and even in the strictest definitions the term covers a lot of ground. Basically a liqueur is a sweetened or flavored alcoholic beverage. There are many further ways to categorize them and according to different countries this is done differently. On this site I include cordials, cream liqueurs, fruit liqueurs, and herbal liqueurs here. The base spirit can be fermented from anything that is fermentable.
Aroma:
Varies greatly dependent on style and ingredients.
Color:
Liqueurs allow for many different flavors and colorings, even artificial ones. As a result the color spectrum's only limit is the rainbow itself.
Flavor:
Anything you can imagine.
Strength:
Strength of liqueurs varies greatly. Some as low as 10% alcohol by volume and ranging all the way to high proof spirits in the 60% range.
