Review

I love what Abstinence do – the vibrancy, colour and intense flavouring of their drinks is superb and seems to reflect their origins in South Africa.  This is a companion piece to their marvellous bitter orange Abstinence and it’s very nearly as good.  It’s refreshingly different to have a lemon apertifi rather than the more traditional orange, and the taste is bold and layered with lots of lemon zest and some spicy, aromatic underpinnings.  Very enjoyable, very grown up.

Makers Notes

Any great occasion or social gathering necessitates a premium, mouth-watering Aperitif. ABSTINENCE Non-Alcoholic Aperitif provides all the richness and complexity of flavour, without the alcohol. A marriage of zesty Lemon and aromatic Buchu, further complimented by Aloe and African Wormwood. A unique South African spin to a mouth-watering appetizer for a guilt free Spritz or low ABV cocktail. 

Botanicals:

Buchu, African Wormwood, Aloe, Cinchona Bark, Lemon, Quinine, Spice Distillate

Tasting Note:

A vibrant, citrus forward Aperitif with a dominant lemon and blackcurrant (Buchu) backbone, supported by an infusion of natural botanicals and a faint bitterness from the aloe, quinine and African Wormwood. A mouth-watering, citrus mouthfeel makes it the perfect appetizer.
