Vicario Cocoa Inferno Liqueur

Vicario Cocoa Inferno is unlike any chocolate liqueur you've ever tasted — and that's entirely by design. Created by spirits scholar Renato Vicario and Janette Wesley, who wanted to delve into the historical nature of liquid chocolate — inspired by the Olmec, Aztec, and Mayan peoples who drank cocoa with hot pepper, vanilla, and spices long before it was sweetened into the confection we know today. Utilizing rare Criollo cocoa — accounting for less than 3% of the world's cocoa production — and no emulsifiers, this is a chocolate liqueur with genuine Aztec influence: a neutral wheat distillate blended with estate-grown habanero peppers, sea salt from Cervia once reserved for the Pope, vanilla, and allspice. The result comes across as almost dry — a unique counterpoint to almost anything else available on the market — with Criollo cocoa bringing hazelnut-almond cream, freshly baked bread, vanilla, and rose petals, while the habanero delivers a slow-building heat that lingers long on the finish. Deeply cocoa, slightly salty, and quietly volcanic. Buy Vicario Cocoa Inferno Liqueur online with fast shipping right to your door.
