St. George Liqueur Coffee Nola 750ml
$70.98 price per bottle
Our rich and satisfying NOLA Coffee Liqueur was inspired by our love for New Orleansstyle coffee, as well as by distiller Dave Smith’s own love story. (For more on that, read on. . . ) Roasted Yirgacheffe coffee beans, French chicory root, Madagascar vanilla beans, and organic cane sugar combine to create a coffee liqueur with dimension and depth. Just like the city of New Orleans itself, our NOLA Coffee Liqueur intrigues, engages the senses, and invites you to let go of expectations and give yourself over to a wholly delicious experience.

| Making a New Orleansstyle coffee liqueur has been on our wish list for years. When we were finally able to devote the time this project deserved in order to be its best, we were lucky to have the support of many local roasters and friends. In particular, we owe special thanks and a debt of gratitude to Brad and Kate Joyce of Jewel Box Coffee Roasters, Tal Mor of Four Barrel Coffee, and Alex Roberts of Roast Co. for their gracious support. Sourcing St. George distiller Dave Smith searched high and low for the perfect ingredients to create an homage to New Orleans. Ethiopian coffee beans, French chicory root, and Madagascar vanilla gave us just the balance of flavors we were looking for. Roasting Working on Roast Co. ’s Probat, Brad Joyce roasted our Yirgacheffe beans to perfection. Brad’s depth of experience and intuitive approach were critical to coaxing out the deep, fruity flavors that we wanted to showcase from the beans. Grinding When our coffee grinder didn’t live up to the task, in true DIY St. George fashion we MacGyver-ed it and came up with another plan on the fly: Luckily, our grain mill gave us the perfect grind. Infusing Our cold-infusion method ensures a thoughtful focus on the most elegant flavors and aromas that we love from the beans, while minimizing extraction of the astringent components of the coffee. |
| Food pairing |
| Sipped neat, our NOLA liqueur is delicious alongside breakfast, dessert, and any meal in betweenwith each sip revealing a bit more character. In cocktails, it provides a touch of sweetness, earthy depth, and that robust roasted flavor that coffee lovers crave. |
| Producer |
| Since St. George Spirits was founded in 1982, we’ve grown from a dedicated eau de vie distillery into a diverse operation that makes a range of craft spirits. Then: a bare-bones production facility with tasting tables jerry-rigged on sawhorses. Now: a 65,000-square-foot hangar with a spectacular tasting room, laboratory, and a lineup of the most beautiful copper stills in the industry. Then: a one-man operation. Now: a diverse team of individuals passionate about artisan spirits. It’s a lot to be proud of. But it didn’t happen overnight. We’ve grown slowly over the last 35 years, hiring one person at a time, adding one copper still at a time. We don’t have a marketing team or a big advertising budget. What we do have are passion, ideas, and access to superlative raw materials. The craft distillation movement has grown with us over the years, and we’ve been joined by hundreds of new distilleries across the country. As the landscape has changed, there’s been a lot of talk about established spirits brands vs. newcomers. Big brands vs. small brands. The way we see it, it’s not that small or big is better. It’s not that new or old is better. Better is better. And with that in mind, we have dedicated ourselves to making the best spirits we can. We’re passionate about distillation in all its forms, but we don’t release a spirit unless we feel we have something new and valid to contribute to the conversation. We want to be able to pick our spirits out of a lineup on smell and taste alone because they’re exceptional. We pledge to craft quintessential spirits to delight hedonists and genius bartenders alike-and when you taste our spirits, we hope that the character and quality of what’s in your glass will convey to you what we’re all about. |
