Goldschlager Cinnamon Schnapps Liqueur, 70 cl

Product Information

Later, in 2018, Diageo sold the Goldschlager brand to the United States-based company, Sazerac. The Sazerac company is home to many other famous brands like Buffalo Trace, Van Winkle, Blanton’s, Eagle Rare, and many others. In 1758 Johann Bernhard Berentzen founded a small distillery in Haselünne, Germany. Berentzen schnapps is still made at “The Berentzen Hof” (House of Berentzen).

Cinnamon schnapps and cinnamon whiskey liqueurs are not the same! However, they are often listed as an alternative or comparison. Goldschlager cinnamon schnapps is a clear, neutrally sweetened liquor whereas cinnamon whiskey is dark. Goldswasser, like Goldschlager, was infused with gold, only 23-karat instead of 24. It didn’t take long for Goldswasser to become a favorite of Peter and Katherine the Great, legendary czars. Instead, they seem to just act as a mere symbol of branding and, probably, a perceived sense of luxury. In the end, the move seems to be a very effective marketing strategy. At least that’s how it seemed to Wayne, who muses about its seeming disappearance in the early 2000s.

Ultimately, the question of whether one spirit is better than the other comes down to personal preference. If you like a strong cinnamon flavor with a fiery burn then Goldschläger might be your preferred choice; however if you're looking for something smoother and easier to drink then Fireball could be better suited for you. The Taste of Goldschläger

Another common myth surrounding Goldschlager is that the flakes can lacerate your esophagus or your stomach lining, causing you to get drunk way faster. This is entirely untrue. If you’ve ever touched gold leaf before, it is extremely soft and malleable, and there’s absolutely no way it could cause internal lacerations. When Goldschläger ruled the shot scene, Wayne used it to make something called an Oatmeal Cookie. Versions can be found online, but a popular iteration includes Bailey’s Irish Cream, butterscotch schnapps, and, of course, Goldschläger. Schnapps has been enjoyed in Europe for centuries, particularly in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, and the Scandinavian countries of Norway, Denmark, Sweden and Finland. In 1758 Johann Bernhard Berentzen founded his distillery in Haselünne, Germany which has now grown into one of the largest schnapps producers worldwide. How Is Schnapps Made?

The first accounts of edible gold in Europe are from around the Middle Ages when they would use gold leaf as food decoration as well as for medicinal purposes. During the Renaissance in Europe, Paracelsus, the so-called “father of modern pharmacology,” was known to have used gold in a variety of pills and powders for medicinal purposes. You can add it to clear rum or vodka to give you a similar taste as Goldschlager, gold flakes, and all. How To Drink Goldschlager Liqueur Diageo also owns several other popular brands like Guinness, Smirnoff, Crown Royal, and Don Julio. Once the transfer was made, Goldschlager’s production was moved to Italy. Ciao, baby! Goldschlager might be popular throughout the world today, but the Swiss creators weren’t the first to make liquor with gold in it. The idea originally came from the German drink, Goldwasser. Goldwasser has been around for centuries as it was created in 1606. This is news to Wayne, who says he can’t remember the last time he saw Goldschläger in a bar. After it “disappeared,” people started shooting Jägermeister, says Wayne. He doubts anyone still shoots Goldschläger.

You may have noticed that Goldschläger has been alternatively referred to as both a liqueur and a schnapps. Liqueur is generally defined as a distilled spirit that is typically sweetened with various flavors and extracts. Records the default button state of the corresponding category & the status of CCPA. It works only in coordination with the primary cookie. The sweetening requirement is what makes cordials distinct from dry flavored spirits such as gin. In the United States, where “cordial” and “liqueur” are used interchangeably, regulations require that they contain at least 2.5 percent sugar by weight and be made from “fruits, flowers, plants, or pure juices therefrom, or other natural flavoring materials, or with extracts” of those materials. In Europe, cordials refer to non-alcoholic drinks. We use the terms based on U.S. regulations. In terms of taste, Goldschläger has a stronger cinnamon flavor than Fireball and can be quite harsh when consumed straight. For this reason, Fireball may be more suitable for those who prefer drinks with a milder flavor profile. On the other hand, Fireball is much easier to drink than Goldschläger due to its lower alcohol content. Begins syrupy and sweet then becomes a sizzle of pepper, cinnamon and other warming chilli-like spices. The mid-palate just adds more fuel to the fire! The finish is peppery and sweet cinnamon. Oh Boy. Summary
