Review: Merlet Creme de Melon Charentais

Products You May Like

Primarily a liqueur constituted of a French varietal of cantaloupe, this calmly golden liqueur is evocative of melon, but it surely takes its time to get there. The nostril and assault are aggressively candy, floral, nearly perfumed, with an vague word of candied melon. The palate showcases the cantaloupe a bit extra clearly, but it surely’s muddied beneath a thick layer of candy, white sugar. That sweetness endures nearly without end because the palate builds towards the end, reinforcing how easy and overbearingly candy this liqueur is. Barely salty and gently vegetal on the conclusion, that sugary character slowly turns into saccharine, clinging to the mouth for what looks like hours.

36 proof.
