Nelson’s Gold® is one of our most popular spirits. A delicate blend of vodka and our handmade caramel, made with love at the Wild Knight Distillery.
Described as a crème brûlée in a glass and it continues to WOW! customers, whenever they taste it!
Nelson’s Gold is exceptionally smooth. The caramel gives the liqueur a delectable, mellow sweetness. But there are also some beautiful darker notes in the flavour profile.
The caramel creates a gorgeous colour that is best described as amber or nectar-like.
Enjoy:
Nelson's Gold comes in a striking glass bottle with an antique gold-coloured metal embossed label.

Matt's Notes:
"When I was developing our Nelson's Gold caramel vodka recipe, it was essential to achieve the right balance of sweetness from the caramel. It is a liqueur, so it needs a certain level of sweetness but I didn't want it to be cloyingly sweet. From customer feedback, we got this spot on. When customers discover Nelson's Gold, they come back to it again and again. It suits a very broad range of palates and we never tire of hearing that "Wow" when people taste Nelson's Gold for the first time.
The making of the caramel is key and we developed our particular process to obtain the results that I was looking for, to ensure consistency across every batch.
I also, love the look of our bottle, which looks fantastic in our new 70cl version. It's a stand-out bottle!"
Why? It's the best description we could give it. Deep caramel and vanilla notes, all wrapped up in our delicious, smooth liquid.
We make our caramel from just two ingredients - sugar and water but it's made by our special process.
Once cooled, our caramel is blended into our secret recipe and bottled ready to be chilled and enjoyed.
Most Nelson's Gold fans enjoy the liquid slightly chilled or over ice. Some have raved about pouring it over ice cream and one gentleman enjoys it - responsibly - over his porridge.
But why stop there? From the ever-popular Nelson's Golden Apple to the 15 Second New Fashioned...
You are welcome to taste Nelson's Gold at any of the events that we attend, or buy a taster bottle.

Reviews from Master of Malt:
Delightful.
Absolutely spot balance of flavour, over ice in mid-summer or neat in winter.
Pure indulgence.
Just sumptuous, by far the best caremelised vodka i've ever tried. The only downside is its far too easy to drink.
Delicious & not too sweet. Plus perfect over vanilla ice-cream!
Tried this over vanilla ice-cream (perhaps a little sacrilegious) but it was just perfect! Neat or over ice-cream, it has my vote.
