First made in 1934 in Wolfenbüttel, Germany, Jägermeister still follows the same secret recipe, built from 56 botanicals — herbs, roots, fruits and spices sourced from around the world. The blend is steeped in water and alcohol to draw out flavor, then rests in oak barrels for close to a year before being combined with water, caramelized sugar and alcohol for bottling. From start to finish, each batch passes through 383 quality checks.
The nose opens on spice: star anise, cinnamon, clove and cardamom. Sipped at precisely -18 degrees Celsius, the palate turns to anise, fennel, coffee, orange, burnt sugar and cola, with five notes — sweet, bitter, citrus, spicy and aromatic — holding each other in balance. The finish is dry and long, carrying a complex bitterness and herbaceous character without leaning sweet. Bottled at 35% ABV in a 1.75 L format, it also lends its depth to cocktails such as a Jägermeister Mule, Jägermeister Old Fashioned or Jägermeister and Tonic.
The taste is both balanced and harmonious. Initial nose of spice, such as star anise, cinnamon, clove, and cardamom. As one sips at precisely -18 degrees Celsius, one enjoys the glories of anise, fennel, coffee, orange, burnt sugar, and cola. The finish is a harmony of complex bitterness and herbaceous mystery. Dry, long, yet not overly sweet, preparing the palate to re-engage once more.
