Bols Blue Curaçao is a vibrant blue-colored liqueur made by Lucas Bols, one of the oldest distilled spirits companies, founded in 1575 in Amsterdam. The liqueur is flavored using the peels of the Laraha citrus fruit, native to the Caribbean island of Curaçao. The Laraha is a bitter orange native to Curaçao, a variant of the sweet Valencia orange found originally on the island but adapted to the local climate.

Taste and Flavor: Bols Blue Curaçao has a distinct flavor derived from the aromatic oils of the dried peels of the Laraha fruit. It features a complex citrus taste with a sweet, orange-like flavor that is layered with hints of bitterness. The liqueur is often described as having a candy-like orange flavor with subtle floral notes.

Color and Appearance: Its most notable characteristic is its bright blue color, which is achieved through the addition of a food-safe dye. The vivid blue is popular for creating visually striking drinks that stand out in terms of appearance.
