Jägermeister is an herbal liqueur made from 56 herbs, fruits, roots, and spices including citrus peel, licorice, anise, poppy seeds, saffron, ginger, juniper berries, and ginseng.
A delightful blend of cinnamon and vanilla spices married with the legendary ingredients found in the original secret Jägermeister recipe. We recommend that Jägermeister be kept on ice and served cold.
Tasting Notes Appearance: Dark brown/gold, caramel color to it. Reminiscent of a whiskey but darker. On swirling leaves an even coat on the glass with a very slow development of legs.
First Impression: Heavy scents of menthol, cloves, cinnamon, and ginger.
Taste: Menthol, cinnamon, cloves, allspice, cardamom, gentian. A long mentholated aftertaste with mild alcohol presence.
Drinks: 100's of them - most undrinkable in my opinion. One of the more amusing preparations I have ever seen was Kevin Brauchs' (of the Thirsty Traveler, and lately Iron Chef fame) Jager Pop Rocks. The most often method of drinking Jager is as a chilled shot from a proprietary shot chilling machine, where it is slammed in group efforts to achieve, well something.
Bottle: Dark green rectangular flask style bottle of pressed glass, with slightly curved sides which make gripping the bottle much easier.
