Have just bottled my Crema di Limoncello (
formatting link
) and all is well. I used the recipie in the link except I used 92%ABV spirit from my still and the zest of (I think) 20 lemons. After aging and crash cooling in the freezer for a whole 3 hours there is a firey note and no lack of lemon flavour :-)
Taste buds report that the concoction is pushing 35%ABV and that 92%ABV will strip a lot of colour and flavour out of lemon zest in as little as 7 days
