Bols Triple Sec 700ml/15%

Detail Produk Bols Triple Sec 700ml/15%

Bols Triple Sec follows the typical triple sec trait of being clear, though at 21% ABV does come in fairly weak compared to many triple sec offerings. The nose has a sharp, bright combination of orange zest and alcohol that greatly contrasts the mellow Dry Orange smell. The initial taste almost perfectly mirrors the nose, with a bright but not particularly strong orange flavour.

This orange flavour continues in to the finish, with a more zesty component developing as time goes on. To my surprise, given the low alcohol content, this triple sec develops a mild but noticeable burn towards the end. The sweetness was unremarkable, being neither too strong nor notably absent – unlike some triple secs my notes mention sweetness only at the very end, almost as as afterthought.

While Bols Triple Sec is fairly one-dimensional in the flavour department, it retains an impressive kick given its strength. Considering it is one of the cheapest triple secs in the comparison it stands up pretty well. It isn’t the best, but it certainly isn’t the worst.
