Rothman & Winter Orchard Quince Liqueur

Rothman & Winter is the fruit liqueur line from Destillerie Purkhart, a family house in Upper Austria that has been making eaux-de-vie and liqueurs since 1932, brought to the States by importer Haus Alpenz. The whole range follows one rule: higher proof and less sugar than the competition, so the fruit leads and a single bottle stretches across many more drinks. Orchard Quince is made from the October harvest in the alpine valleys around the distillery, combining fresh-pressed quince juice with a quince eau-de-vie distilled from the same fruit, and it's bottled at 24% ABV. Quince, for anyone who hasn't cooked with one, is the hard, fragrant cousin of the apple and pear that tastes like both with citrus, honey, and rose on top, and that's exactly what's in the glass: sweet, tangy, floral, with a tartness that most fruit liqueurs lack. That acidity is what makes it useful. Lengthen it with soda or sparkling wine, stir it into a margarita in place of triple sec, pair it with gin, or splash it into iced green tea.
