John D. Taylor's Velvet Falernum is the original, iconic Barbadian spiced liqueur, a sweet, rum-based syrup flavored with lime, almond, clove, and ginger, essential for Tiki drinks like Zombies, Mai Tais, and Corn 'n' Oil, adding velvety texture and warm spice to punches and cocktails. Produced by R.L. Seale & Co., it's a staple in Barbados and adds a tropical, aromatic depth to drinks, often used as a spiced simple syrup alternative.
