Jägerbomb

Do not let its wild party reputation fool you the liquid inside the bottle is a masterpiece of precision distilling. Jägermeister is produced using a highly classified secret recipe comprising 56 different natural botanicals, including whole fruits, roots, peel and blossoms.

The ingredients are carefully measured, ground, and steeped in a cold maceration process for several weeks. Following extraction, the liquid base is transferred into historic oak casks where it undergoes a lengthy maturation process lasting an entire year. This wood aging rounds out the sharp edges of the botanicals, resulting in a perfectly balanced, bittersweet profile before it is blended with pure water and sugar.

Tasting Notes

• Aroma: A complex, aromatic bouquet displaying distinct notes of black licorice, sweet star anise, pungent ginseng, and citrus peel.
