Same Laraha, Sunset Colour
Senior & Co describes its Triple Sec line as three colours and one taste, and this is the warm one: the clear Laraha distillate — macerated and copper-distilled with spices at the Landhuis Chobolobo in Willemstad — tinted the colour of the fruit it came from. The orange hue is for the eye and the cocktail's finished look; the candied-orange and bitter-peel flavour underneath is identical to the clear bottling. Pick your colour from our liqueurs collection, or compare the trio on the The Genuine Curacao vendor page.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Candied orange and bitter peel. Palate: Sweet, rich and complex — juicy orange with citrus depth and a subtle, balanced sweetness. Finish: Long, with the bitter-peel note carrying through.
How to Enjoy
Built for the classics: it mixes naturally with rum in a Mai Tai, stands in for triple sec in a Margarita when you want the drink to glow, and adds colour and orange depth to Scotch cocktails.
