Liqueur product information
The basis for the new banana cream liqueur BUD SPENCER - The Legend - BANANA JOE is the mild St. Kilian Single Malt Spirit, which was double distilled from the best barley malt in original Scottish pot still stills and subsequently mixed with natural banana flavors and the finest cream. The combination of the fruity taste of sun-ripened bananas and creamy toffee with a squeeze of lime gives this liqueur a distinctive and enticing note. With an alcohol content of 21% by volume, BANANA JOE is an elegant and full-bodied treat for lovers of high-quality liqueurs and Bud Spencer fans alike. The iconic 0.7l bottle, in which all other popular Bud Spencer and Terence Hill spirits are also bottled, also gives this fine drop that certain something visually.
