Tamarind Liqueur just won its 2nd Silver Medal at the New York Competition for The Fifty Best Liqueurs in 2021

PHNOM PENH, CAMBODIA, June 18, 2021 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Tamarind Liqueur - 40 proof

Our Tamarind Liqueur starts with Cambodian rice baijiu, macerated with hand picked tamarind. It is then sweetened exclusively with palm sugar from Cambodia's national tree; the Borassus flabellifer - more commonly know as the sugar palm tree. Climber's climb to the top, and extract the sap from it's flowers, and boil it down to a syrup - much in the manner of American maple syrup.

The baijiu, tamarind, and palm sugar give it it's unique taste of Southeast Asia - and help explain the following notes from The Fifty Best - Liqueurs Competition !
