Producer's Notes

72-TOMATOES is made with... 72 ancient varieties of tomatoes, which Laurent grows organically in his estate, amongst fruit trees, flowers, herbs and vines. Noire de Crimée, Rose de Berne, Merveille des Marchés, Cornue des Andes… all these tomatoes are used to make this amazing liqueur. Saline with elegant vegetal notes and a touch of sweetness, this is an amazing aperitif, or to have with tapas, marinated anchovies or whelks in aïoli.

As with his other liqueurs, Laurent will wait until the tomatoes are dried (passerillé). They are then fully destemmed and bitter components removed by hand. The flesh is then put into an eau-de-vie of Folle Noire grapes and left to macerate until the tomato essence is fully extracted. This is then racked and the “pomace” is pressed and redistilled into a marc. This marc is then added back to the liqueur. Any adjustment in sugar is done with Folle Noire grape sugar.
