DeKuyper Buttershots Butterscotch Schnapps

Product Description

DeKuyper Buttershots: Liquid Butterscotch Candy, Bar-Ready

DeKuyper Buttershots Butterscotch Schnapps comes from De Kuyper Royal Distillers, the world's largest cocktail liqueur producer and one of the oldest family businesses in the Netherlands, tracing back to 1695. That three-century legacy of liqueur-making has earned De Kuyper the title of Liqueur Producer of the Year five years running at the International Spirits Challenge, a distinction that extends across the brand's full portfolio, Buttershots included.

How DeKuyper Buttershots Is Made

This schnapps is crafted using low-pressure distillation, a technique that allows stills to operate at reduced temperatures for a fresher, more vibrant flavor rather than a heavy or overcooked one. It's made with all-natural flavors and contains no high fructose corn syrup, delivering an indulgent butterscotch character that reads as rich without being overly cloying at its modest 15% ABV (30 proof).

Tasting Notes

Appearance: Golden.

Aroma: Sweet and creamy butterscotch, with notes of melted caramel and warm vanilla.

Palate: Velvety and full-bodied, with buttery sweetness, brown sugar, and a soft hint of toasted toffee.

Finish: Smooth and lingering, with satisfying sweetness.

Food Pairings

DeKuyper Buttershots' brown sugar and toffee character pairs well with apple pie, a vanilla-based crème brûlée, or a warm blondie. Its buttery sweetness also complements a simple coffee cake.

Serving Suggestions

Buttershots is best known as the bottom half of a Buttery Nipple, layered with Irish cream for a classic shot. It also shines in a Caramel Apple Martini, mixed with apple schnapps and vodka, or stirred into hot coffee for an easy dessert-style drink.
