Every June, the streets of Hanoi are filled with street vendors carrying baskets of ripe wampee (quất hồng bì), golden under the summer sun. This liqueur evokes childhood memories of enjoying small seasonal treats—gentle yet lingering nostalgia, and the anticipation of a fruit that arrives only once each summer.
The spirit shines in a vivid orange-red hue, with a sweet-tart balance and a uniquely cooling, fragrant note found in no other fruit.
Perfect with many Vietnamese dishes, though best savored neat, accompanied by fresh fruit, or crafted into cocktails.
