Pierre-Marie Chermette Crème de Pêche de Vigne au Gingembre

The vine peach is another distinctive feature of Burgundy's southern vineyards. It is a small, highly aromatic, white-fleshed peach with a purplish skin, often planted along the lanes leading to the vineyards. This hand-made liqueur is obtained by macerating and distilling Vissoux's organically-grown vine peaches in the finest alcohol, then adding a carefully controlled amount of sugar. Martine Chermette then adds an exotic, spicy touch by infusing the liqueur with fresh ginger root. The colour comes exclusively from the fruit; no artificial colours (or flavours) are added - so the colour may vary depending on the bottling. In a word: delicious!
