Muyu Vetiver Gris is a modern herbal liqueur created by bartender Alex Kratena in partnership with De Kuyper Royal Distillers in the Netherlands. Built around vetiver, an earthy, woody grass, it features accents of timur pepper, patchouli, petit grains and cedarwood for a layered, aromatic profile. Bottled at 22% ABV, it typically retails for around $45.
This is booming with floral aromas of honeysuckle, jasmine and peach pie. The palate is sweet and nuanced with hints of smoke. A great addition to cocktails.
A perfumed, cologne-like nose offers a complex symphony of vetiver, sandalwood, and cedar, which harmonize gracefully alongside a hint of must. Enchanting flavours of orange and floral notes add depth on the harmonious palate, leading to a spicy, herbal finish. Exquisite!
