What it brings to the back bar.

Deliciously different, exceptionally smooth and velvety on the palate, Riga Black Balsam® opens a whole world of sensations with its 24 ingredients. Subtle hints of linden blossom, birch bud, valerian root, raspberry, bilberry, and ginger as well as touches of nutmeg and black peppercorn tease the palate and come alive in the glass.

Tasting notes centre on sweetness, fruit, spice and cocktail depth. The profile is intended to be easy for buyers and bartenders to understand quickly, with enough character to support both simple serves and more considered menu builds.

For trade use, RIGA BLACK BALSAM® is presented in 0.02 L with 45% ABV and Latvia as the listed origin or key descriptor. It works best where the serve needs clarity, speed and a credible brand story rather than another anonymous back-bar listing.
