The story

The story behind John D. Taylor's

Falernum is a sweetened cordial long made in the Caribbean, built on rum with lime, clove, almond and ginger notes. It is the kind of bottle bartenders reach for to add spice and citrus lift to a drink without much fuss. Served chilled or in small measure, it reads sweet and warming, with clove and lime leading and a soft rum backbone underneath.

We carry John D. Taylor's Velvet Falernum in a 750mL bottle here at our Commack shop. It is a small allocation for us, so call ahead if you want to be sure a bottle is waiting.
