These would make lovely summertime spritzers, mixed with soda or 7up for a sweeter sip! I would agree with Lance, the aromas were to be enjoyed as much as the drink itself.

There was a certain level of intimidation regarding them - what is the appeal? What is the proper way to drink them? Mixed, straight? The nose for all of these selections was outstanding. I think the greatest appeal was enjoying the incredible aroma of each one. They were all quite enjoyable neat though perhaps a bit strong. Mixed lightly with ginger ale, club soda (or something else I would like to try - cream soda) was fantastic. I particularly enjoyed the surprise spirit - Eau de Vie of Douglas Fir. Neat it was complex and overpowering - mixed with tonic it was fantastic. Great tasting! - Lance This was my first experience with Eau de Vie.
