Velvet Falernum is produced from the original recipe of John D. Taylor, which dates back to 1890 and originates from Bridgetown in Barbados. The same recipe is now faithfully reproduced by the Foursquare distillery, which owns the brand name.
Made from lime juice, almonds, brown sugar syrup, cloves and rum, Falernum is an indispensable ingredient in Tiki mixing, and is used in many recipes such as Mai Tai and Zombie. It has a delicate, elegant nose and a very pleasant, herbaceous palate.
Distillates have different alcoholpercentages. So, we have defined a parameter allowing you to better understand and compare different prices. This parameter is calculated by dividing the bottle price by the alcohol content. The alcohol content (or strength) is the amount of pure alcohol (ethanol) contained in the distillate.
This parameter indicates the price of a single 4cl dosage of distillate. It is calculated by dividing the price of the bottle by its quantity (expressed in cl), then multiplying by the centilitres of the recommended single dose, as average in cocktail recipes.
