Amarula Raspberry, Chocolate and African Baobab 750ml
Pour this over a couple of ice cubes and you've got pudding you can sip. It's the classic creamy Amarula you know, but someone snuck in raspberry, chocolate and a wild African fruit called baobab. Think melty chocolate with a tangy fruit kick, smooth and properly sweet. The move tonight: late, lights low, something on the speaker, this in a small glass. We'll get it to your door fast, any hour.
First whiff is all chocolate and cream, like the top of a hot cocoa, with raspberry jam right behind it. Sip and it's thick and velvety on the tongue, sweet but not cloying, with that tart raspberry cutting through the chocolate so it never gets heavy. Underneath sits the marula fruit (caramel, a little Turkish-delight thing going on) and the baobab adds a bright citrus lift with faint hints of melon. Finishes warm, creamy and long.
The details
Pairs well with
Where it's from
Amarula is South African through and through. It starts with the marula, a wild fruit that grows on the sub-Saharan plains (and yes, elephants go nuts for it). Communities around Phalaborwa in Limpopo hand-harvest the fruit for a few weeks each summer, then it's fermented like wine, double-distilled and aged two years in oak before getting blended with fresh cream. This bottling takes that base and leans into African botanicals, adding raspberry, chocolate and citrusy baobab fruit for a richer, fruitier spin on the original.
