Herrencreme, café au lait, and salted caramel are each available with 17% ABV in 700-milliliter bottles, with the Herrencreme also available in 200 milliliters. A miniature set includes six 20-milliliter bottles, covering all three varieties. Milk is listed as an allergen on the label for all of them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMost liqueur lines invent flavors. This one remembers them – remembering what used to be on the table in the Münsterland region on Sundays, before anyone had the idea to put it into a bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho Paula Pumpernickel is\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBehind the name is a food blogger who travels the entire Münsterland region and takes a look behind the scenes at paulapumpernickel.com.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShe has visited more than 80 farms and restaurants for this purpose: she shows how products are made and introduces the people who ensure there is so much good food in the region – from fruit and vegetables to meat, eggs, and dairy products, to beer and spirits. The blog focuses on regional, seasonal food and the stories behind it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe connection to the distillery is older than the liqueur line. The \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/feinbrennerei-sasse\"\u003eFeinbrennerei Sasse\u003c\/a\u003e was one of the founding members of the Münsterland-Siegel in 2009, the association whose members Paula Pumpernickel visits. Since 2021, there has also been this cooperation between the association and the distillery in Schöppingen – \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sassekorn.de\/collections\/paula-pumpernickel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eas Sasse describes it themselves\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis explains why the series sounds the way it does. Anyone who has spent years driving around the farms and kitchens of a region does not come back with a list of trends, but with what people actually eat there.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHerrencreme, the festive dessert\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/sasse-paula-pumpernickel-herrencreme-likoer\"\u003eHerrencreme\u003c\/a\u003e is the reason this series exists – and outside of Westphalia, almost no one knows it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe original is a dessert: vanilla cream, whipped cream, grated block chocolate, and a dash of rum, served in a glass bowl and placed on the table for holidays. The liqueur recreates exactly that – real vanilla, cream, block chocolate, and overseas rum.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnyone who grew up with it will recognize it from the first sip. Anyone who didn't will get to know a piece of Westphalian cuisine here without ever having to pick up a spoon. This is the only variety in the series also available in the small 200-milliliter bottle – as a gift for someone who understands the story behind it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rum carries the vanilla and gives the cream an edge – in the dessert as well as in the liqueur. In the original, the block chocolate is grated and folded into the cream, and it is also on the ingredient list for the liqueur. Such details determine whether a reproduction works as a tribute or merely as an assertion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is remarkable in itself that this liqueur exists. Herrencreme is a dessert that you either know or you don't – a brand that takes it to the national market is betting that origin is more interesting than familiarity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCafé au lait and the Westphalian coffee table\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/sasse-paula-pumpernickel-milchkaffee-likoer-700ml\"\u003eMilchkaffee\u003c\/a\u003e (café au lait) quotes an institution: the coffee table, where the afternoon is not about the coffee, but about staying seated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStrong coffee meets creamy milk, rounded off with a dash of spirits – creamy, roasty, milky. It tastes like the afternoon when the cake is all gone but nobody gets up anyway.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePractically, it is the most versatile in the series: added to an espresso, it replaces both sugar and cream in one step; poured over vanilla ice cream, it becomes a \"shortcut\" affogato.

That is why this liqueur does not become heavy, even though it should be.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe point in between is narrow. Too little salt and it remains just a sweet cream; too much and it tips over. In Schöppingen, they nailed it – which is why, of all things, the salted caramel has a fan base among barbecue enthusiasts: after the steak, while the coals are still glowing, the salty edge goes better with the smoke than one might think.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e17 percent and the refrigerator\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll three are at 17% ABV, and this figure is an artisanal choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCream and alcohol want to separate, and the higher the alcohol content, the more determined they are to do so. The 17% marks the point at which both stay together – beyond that, the bond becomes an art form. In the glass, this shows as a light flow: these three pour thinly into the glass and therefore remain pleasant even on the second round.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor you, this means: after opening, put them in the refrigerator, where they will last for a few weeks. Swirl briefly before pouring and serve at 6 to 8 degrees Celsius – when cold, the salt and roasted notes stand out clearly; when warm, the sweetness masks them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you don't know which one is yours, get the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/sasse-miniatur-tasting-set-paula-pumpernickel-6x20ml\"\u003eminiature tasting set\u003c\/a\u003e: six 20-milliliter bottles, two of each variety, plus a tasting booklet. 120 milliliters are enough for an evening for two – and because every variety is included twice, everyone gets to drink their favorite twice.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"sasse-paula-pumpernickel-milchkaffee-likoer-700ml","title":"Paula Pumpernickel Coffee Liqueur","description":"\u003ch2 id=\"speakable-headline\"\u003eMilk Coffee Liqueur belongs on the Westphalian coffee table\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cblockquote id=\"speakable-summary\"\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003eThe Paula Pumpernickel Milk Coffee Liqueur from Sasse is a cream liqueur with 17% ABV, in which strong coffee meets creamy milk, rounded off with a dash of spirits.

The rum carries the whole experience and prevents it from becoming just a pudding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eNeat, over ice cream, in coffee\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Herrencreme liqueur is best enjoyed chilled and neat – over vanilla ice cream or vanilla pudding, it becomes the dessert from which it originates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith a scoop of vanilla ice cream, you have a Münsterland dessert on the table in ten seconds that would otherwise take an hour in the kitchen. In coffee, it melts into a kind of evening latte, and anyone baking waffles can pour it over them instead of cream.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt Christmas, it is served with coffee and cake, in summer over a bowl of strawberries – vanilla and berries are old acquaintances. And when guests are over, simply place the bottle next to the ice cream tub and let everyone serve themselves. Nobody ever doses it too lightly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe three varieties in the series are worth comparing: in addition to Herrencreme, there is \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/sasse-paula-pumpernickel-salzkaramell-likoer-700ml\"\u003eSalted Caramel\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/sasse-paula-pumpernickel-milchkaffee-likoer-700ml\"\u003eCafé au Lait\u003c\/a\u003e. All three are part of the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/feinbrennerei-sasse-paula-pumpernickel\"\u003ePaula Pumpernickel family\u003c\/a\u003e, and for those who want to get a taste first, the 200-milliliter bottle is the way to go.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eEvery family has its own recipe\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Sasse fine distillery has been working since 2021 with Paula Pumpernickel, a blogger who has been collecting and presenting Münsterland specialties for years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"When it comes to Herrencreme, every family has 'their' original recipe,\" says Rüdiger Sasse – and that was exactly the difficulty. How do you recreate a dessert that everyone has a different version of in their head? The answer was to stick to the core ingredients: vanilla, cream, chocolate, rum. Whatever comes after that is determined by the individual's spoon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDistilling takes place in Schöppingen, where a distillery has stood since 1707 and Rüdiger Sasse runs the house in the 15th generation. At the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sassekorn.de\/pages\/feinbrennerei-sasse\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eWorld Spirits Award\u003c\/a\u003e in 2025, the distillery was the only Korn distillery in Germany to be named a World-Class Distillery – one of 18 worldwide. Worlds lie between a ten-year-aged barrique Korn and a pudding liqueur, and both are created under the same roof.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eInto the fridge, not the bar\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBelongs in the fridge, not the bar – cream liqueur likes it cold, and the chocolate shards are best enjoyed chilled. Give it a quick shake before pouring so everything is distributed. Over vanilla ice cream, in coffee, or neat in a small glass after a meal. Once opened, it will keep for a few weeks when refrigerated, which is the rule for cream liqueurs.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Feinbrennerei Sasse","offers":[{"title":"700 ml","offer_id":55335614710094,"sku":"024SAS523070","price":17.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"200 ml","offer_id":55335614742862,"sku":"024SAS503040","price":8.8,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0905\/1124\/5646\/files\/sasse-paula-pumpernickel-herrencreme-likoer.jpg?v=1771080458"}],"url":"https:\/\/norgutes.com\/en\/collections\/feinbrennerei-sasse-paula-pumpernickel.oembed","provider":"nur Gutes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
