FORGED SPIRITS x RECENT COFFEE - COLD BREW COFFEE LIQUEUR 70cl
Born from a collaboration between RECENT Coffee and Forged Spirits Distillery, this liqueur brings together two teams of makers obsessed with doing things the right way.
Hand-crafted in small batches, it blends Forged's distilling expertise with our premium Arabica coffee recipe; a closely guarded secret that was developed, tested and refined by both teams.
Thoughtfully made. Quietly exceptional.

FLAVOUR PROFILE
Nose: Rich roasted coffee, cocoa nib, soft caramel.
Palate: Smooth cold-brew character, dark chocolate, toasted sugars, subtle vanilla, gentle warmth from the spirit.
Finish: Clean, lingering espresso notes with a touch of sweetness.
BRIEF PRODUCTION PROCESS
Base Spirit Creation
Forged Spirits begins with a clean, neutral grain spirit crafted in small batches for clarity and smoothness.
Cold Brew Integration
Recent Coffee supplies a high-quality cold brew made from specialty beans. The cold extraction process (typically 16–20 hours) preserves aromatics, reduces acidity, and delivers a deep, chocolate-forward flavour profile. The roast is elevated to specifically balance the sweetness of the liqueur.
Infusion & Blending
The enhanced roast cold brew is blended into the base spirit along with a measured sugar profile - just enough to round out the coffee character without becoming syrupy.
Resting Period
The liqueur is rested to allow the spirit, coffee oils and natural flavours to integrate fully.
Final Filtration & Bottling
Filtered for clarity, checked for flavour balance, and bottled by hand in limited batches.
Brief History of Forged Spirits
Founded in Yorkshire, Forged Spirits began as a small independent distillery built on traditional craft principles and a focus on clean, expressive flavours. Over time it has become known for innovative collaborations, small-batch production, and a commitment to quality over volume.
The distillery’s ethos centres on precision, patience, and purposeful flavour. Each product is developed with a respect for classic techniques while embracing collaborations that highlight the best of local artisan producers.
