Appearance: Opaque yellow-beige.
Aroma: Salted caramel fudge.
Flavour and Texture: The texture is thick and gloopy, about the consistency of ceiling paint. The flavor is a combination of raw alcohol, caramel and burnt sugar with a little touch of salt and vanilla .
Hellyers Road is a Tasmanian distillery better known for their single malts, which range from average to very good in quality. They also make whisky based liqueurs in several flavours and I had their “Original” liqueur and reviewed it here on Distiller some years ago. It is an average whisky-based cream liqueur that I rated at 78.
I bought this Salted Caramel version last year when it was on special in the hope that it would be better than the Original, but sadly the reverse is true. Rather than caramel there is a harsh flavor of burnt sugar on the palate which is not at all pleasant. This is not even average ... it is decidedly inferior to most other liqueurs.
“Inferior” : 69/100 (1.75 stars)
