What is madiera liquor?

Madeira is a fortified wine that originates from the Portuguese island of Madeira. It has a rich, caramel-like flavor, with a hint of sweetness, and a slight nutty taste. Fortification means that brandy or another distilled spirit is added to the wine during the fermentation process, which raises the alcohol content to between 18% and 20%. Madeira is typically enjoyed as an after-dinner drink, served in small quantities. It pairs well with desserts, chocolates, cheeses, and even salty snacks, making it a versatile drink. The wine has a long history and has been produced since the 15th century, with some varieties aging for over 100 years. Despite its similarities, Madeira is not the same as Port; both are fortified wines but come from different regions, with different grapes, and have different production methods.
