Chinola Passion Fruit Liqueur

Chinola Passion Fruit Liqueur hails from the Dominican Republic, where the journey to create the world's first vine-to-bottle, shelf-stable fresh fruit liqueur began in 2014. This relatively new liqueur was born from a collaboration of hospitality and spirit industry professionals aiming to capture the authentic taste and aroma of fresh passion fruit, locally called "chinola." The brand is known for its commitment to using 100% fresh fruit and neutral cane spirit without artificial colors or flavors, and for its sustainable, eco-friendly practices from their estate farm in the Samaná Peninsula to the bottle. Notably, Chinola has also contributed to the local community's infrastructure development.

Chinola Passion Fruit Liqueur brings a vibrant, authentic tropical punch to the party, balancing natural sweetness with a distinct tartness. It truly shines in modern classics and tropical-leaning creations, adding a lush, bright passion fruit character that plays exceptionally well in sours or when lengthening a drink with soda for an easy-going spritz. For anyone serious about building out their home bar with versatile cocktail ingredients, this one offers a straightforward way to introduce genuine fruit complexity.

Chinola greets you with a vibrant, tropical passion fruit aroma, hinting at citrus and vanilla. On the palate, it's a burst of authentic, juicy passion fruit – a beautiful balance of sweet and tangy. The finish is refreshingly long, with that bright passion fruit acidity lingering pleasantly.
