Classic Liquors Introduces Two Great New Varieties!!
Irish Cream
Irish Cream Liqueur has a lovely butterscotch/caramel scent. It is slightly thick when poured and has the color of coffee with extra cream. The taste is pure heaven and is made from a mix of cream, condensed milk, chocolate and coffee flavors and our 20% homebrew. It is our only cream liqueur and we are very proud of it.

Mead Liqueur
The Drink of the Gods, mead has a long history. It may well be the oldest recorded fermented beverage. Mead figures prominently in the tales of Scandinavia and the Vikings. The Celts were drinking it in 500 A.D. There are indications that the Greeks, Romans, Egyptians, Ethiopians, Incas and Aztec used mead, both in festivals and as a religious drink. Honey, and by association, mead, have been attributed with such powers as that of an aphrodisiac, and it has been said in times gone by that it imbues the drinker with attributes such as life, wisdom, courage and strength. Enjoy Mead Liqueur (also known as Ambrosia)– a true descendant of the Drink of the Gods.

Classic Liquors

Classic Liquors are the latest in fermentation technology. They offer the home-brew customer the opportunity to make homemade liquors in just three weeks, tasting just like those expensive imported liqueurs.

Easy to follow directions guide you each step of the way. Classic Liquors starts with water, sugar and the kit. Your customers produce their own one-gallon 40º Proof (20%) flavored alcohol that they brew and clarify at home. Twelve popular varieties to choose from (see chart below.)

In addition to the kit, makers will need 2 one-gallon glass jugs, a length of syphon hose with a clamp, water and cane sugar. We’ve got the additional items too, call and place our order today!

Mexican Coffee By far the best seller, this richly flavored, full-bodied mimic liquor of Kahlua™ is essential in cocktails such as Brown Cow and is superb all by itself.
Mariner’s Liquor Grand Marnier™ in spirit, this is technically an orange liqueur with other herbs added to produce a truly unique flavor.
Amaretto This Italian legend is said to have 17 ingredients in all, the bitter almond and apricot flavors predominate and mesh in a very agreeable manner.
Cherry Brandy A typical steeped fruit liquor, the cherries are crushed and steeped with other herbs giving it that taste that says "improved with age."
Crème de Menthe This traditional peppermint liquor is tastes like dried peppermint leaves have been steeped in grain alcohol for several weeks.
Peach Schnapps This modern favorite is very popular because of the blend of fresh and ripe peaches and not high in alcohol.
Hazelnut Brandy This nutty liqueur has the same great taste as the maceration of grated hazelnuts in pure grain alcohol followed by distillation and sweetening.
Coconut Rum Legend says that in the traditional Caribbean marriage ceremony the bridegroom presents a rum-filled coconut to his bride.
Orange Liqueur This taste comes from a native Caribbean bitter orange that’s blended with sweet oranges, other ingredients and Triple Sec from France.
White Licorice Liqueur Associated with Sambuca, this pungent liqueur gets its popular taste from the essential oils of anise and fennel.
Forest Berry Liqueur This version is a blend of blackcurrant and other berries, leaving a memorable flavor like a taste from bistros in Paris.
Chocolate Mint This relatively new liqueur attracts chocolate lovers from around the world with its rich, creamy taste.
