Empirical Cilantro offers a captivating journey into the pure, verdant essence of one of the world's most distinctive herbs. Crafted by the innovative team at Empirical Spirits, renowned for their dedication to meticulous flavor exploration, this spirit is designed to be both thoroughly unique and surprisingly approachable for cocktail enthusiasts and newcomers alike.
Built upon a smooth, light base spirit made from French wheat, Empirical Cilantro brilliantly showcases the singular, multi-faceted character of fresh cilantro as its central botanical. To achieve a complete expression, subtle notes derived from tomatillo evoke the nuanced flavor of the cilantro stem, a touch of lime illuminates the bright green notes of the leaf, and a hint of vinegar artfully unifies and opens up the entire flavor profile. The aroma is an immediate visit to a summer garden, bursting with sprightly fresh citrus and garden-fresh herbaceousness. On the palate, it is refreshingly grassy and herbal, leading to a satisfyingly dry mineral finish with delicate suggestions of fennel and green tomato.
At 38% ABV, Empirical Cilantro truly shines when mixed, lending its distinctive character to elevate martinis, sours, and margaritas, or enjoyed simply over ice with soda and a fresh squeeze of lime. It's a versatile and inspiring spirit for creative cocktails.
