About this bottle
Riga Black Balsam is a traditional Latvian herbal bitter liqueur dating back to the 18th century, made from a proprietary blend of over 20 herbs, roots, and berries steeped in spirit and aged in oak. It's bottled dark and viscous, similar in spirit to other Northern and Eastern European herbal balsams. Expect intense bitter herbs, licorice, and dark fruit on the nose, a thick, bittersweet, warming palate, and a long, herbal finish. A strong, assertive liqueur for drinkers who enjoy bitter herbal spirits.
