(Been Luking a few weeks) Call me Reg. I have 3 bottles of Curacaos Hiram Walker,Leroux and Dekuper so I though I would do a quick taste test. (any excuse to try out my new shot glasses) Here is what I found. Hiram Walker: 15% or 30 Proof Aroma: most natural orange scent Flavor: Some what watered down tasting Leroux 27% or 54 Proof Aroma: more like a Brandy with a hint of fruit Flavor: Smooth but you can just taste the alcohol Dekuper 27% or 54 Proof Aroma: Similar to Leroux more Brandy like Flavor: Also Smooth with a hint of wood possibly Oak I Prefer Leroux but Dekuper will also do. But Hiram Walker only as a last resort.
