Infinity
The Infinity cocktail is a rich, layered experience, balancing sweetness, dried fruit complexity, and a touch of oak.
The warm, inviting aroma of raisins and plums is immediately noticeable on the nose, with the Umeshu Plum Liqueur adding a sweet and slightly tangy fragrance.
The nuttiness of the Paolo Cortado Sherry brings a subtle, oxidative quality, while the raisin-infused Doorly’s Rum adds depth and richness to the bouquet.

TASTING NOTES:
On the palate, the cocktail opens with a silky sweetness from the Umeshu Plum Liqueur, which is soon complemented by the nutty, slightly salty complexity of the Paolo Cortado Sherry. The raisin-infused rum deepens the flavour with rich molasses and dried fruit notes, adding warmth and structure to the drink. The plum bitters enhance the plum flavour profile while introducing a delicate bitterness that balances the sweetness, preventing the cocktail from becoming overly rich.
As the drink evolves, it leaves a smooth, warming sensation, with a long finish where the raisin and plum notes linger, intertwined with the nutty, dry undertones of the sherry. The combination of fruit, rum, and sherry creates a decadent and complex cocktail, with each element shining through in perfect harmony.
OVERALL PROFILE:
• Nose: Sweet plum, raisin with nutty undertones and hints of oak
• Palate: Silky plum sweetness, nutty sherry complexity, rich molasses, and dried fruit from the raisin-infused rum
• Finish: Long and warming, with lingering plum, raisin, and a subtle nutty dryness
The Infinity cocktail is a luxurious, richly textured drink that perfectly balances sweetness and depth, ideal for those who enjoy fruit-forward cocktails with layers of complexity and a smooth, warming finish. It’s a refined, contemplative cocktail that lingers on the palate, leaving a lasting impression.
