DeKuyper Sour Apple Pucker (1L, 15%)

DeKuyper Sour Apple Pucker is a tart green apple schnapps liqueur bottled at 15% ABV in a one-litre format. DeKuyper Royal Distillers, based in Schiedam, Netherlands, uses infusion and distillation to capture a concentrated green apple character that leans toward tartness, balanced by measured sweetness. The nose is dominated by juicy sour apple, like freshly sliced Granny Smiths, with light candy-like sweetness underneath. The palate moves from an initial burst of sweetness to pronounced mouth-puckering sourness, with green apple peel and juicy fruit through the mid-palate. The finish is short to medium, clean and refreshingly sour, with lingering green apple tartness.
