Liber & Co. Almond Orgeat Syrup shines in tropical rum cocktails, adding nutty depth and a touch of floral sweetness that's perfect for sipping on warm summer evenings; it also pairs beautifully with spicy Asian cuisine or as a unique drizzle over vanilla ice cream for a sophisticated dessert.

Nose: Rich toasted almond aroma with hints of marzipan. Subtle floral notes of orange blossom mingle with a sweet, nutty fragrance reminiscent of freshly baked almond cookies.

Palate: Velvety smooth texture with a pronounced almond flavor. Balanced sweetness from cane sugar complements the nuttiness. Nuanced bitter almond undertones add depth, while orange flower water contributes a delicate floral essence. The overall taste is reminiscent of high-quality almond milk with added complexity.

Finish: Long-lasting almond flavor with a gentle sweetness. The orange blossom notes linger, providing a clean, refreshing aftertaste. A subtle warmth from the roasted almonds persists, leaving a satisfying, nutty finish that invites another sip.

Liber & Co.'s Almond Orgeat Syrup is crafted using whole California almonds that are blanched, roasted, and ground to perfection before being combined with cane sugar, orange blossom water, and a touch of bitter almond oil, resulting in a complex syrup that captures the full spectrum of almond flavors from nutty to floral to marzipan-like.

• The almonds in Liber & Co.'s Orgeat are custom-roasted to bring out deep, toasted nut flavors that can't be replicated with artificial flavorings or extracts. This artisanal approach creates a richness that bartenders swear by for crafting the perfect Mai Tai.
• While most commercial orgeats use artificial bitter almond flavoring, Liber & Co. incorporates a touch of real bitter almond oil. This gives their syrup an authentic marzipan note that adds complexity and depth to cocktails, setting it apart from mass-produced alternatives.
• The addition of orange blossom water in Liber & Co.'s Orgeat isn't just for flavor - it's a nod to traditional Middle Eastern recipes where orgeat originated as a non-alcoholic refresher. This subtle floral note helps balance the nutty richness and makes the syrup versatile enough for use in both classic tiki drinks and modern craft cocktails.
