review: Sarab
January 10th, 2009
- Category: date brandy
- Alcohol: 43%
- Origin: Tunisia
- Manufacturer: Sté. Sarab S.A.R.L.
- Bought at: Tunis Airport, Tunisia (thanks Peter and Wanda!)
Sarab is a company which makes dates brandies (two variants) and dates liqueur (also two variants) mainly for the German market. I have not seen it for sale in Tunisia proper (outside the airports). This is the top-grade brandy variant, with a higher alcohol percentage. It is fairly strong and quite syrupy if cooled. Fragrance of dates are clearly distinguishable. Too bad that it is so hard to come by, or that there are no other producers. Apparently it is also good in cocktails, but I have not tried it. 8/10.
