Drambuie is a honey- and herb-flavoured golden scotch whisky liqueur made from aged malt whisky, heather honey and a secret blend of herbs and spices. The flavor suggests saffron, honey, anise, nutmeg and herbs.
It is produced in Broxburn, Scotland, and can be served straight-up, on ice, or used as an ingredient in a mixed drink, such as the Rusty Nail cocktail. It can also be served as a Flaming Drambuie. A measure is served in a high glass tumbler. The spirit is swirled around gently to give the side of the glass a light coating of alcohol, which is then lit. The drinker immediately places their hand over the top of the glass and the alcohol burns the oxygen sealed in the glass to create a noticeable vacuum effect. As soon as the flame is extinguished the drinker drains the glass in one go. A variant of this is for the drinker to then put a straw in the glass afterwards and inhale the remnants of the glass through the nose.
Drambuie can also be used as an ingredient in cookery, such as in the dessert Drambuie Creams[1].
The alcoholic content of this liqueur is 40% (80° proof).

I could answer the way the others did, but Drambuie has their own website, which will not allow copy and paste of information. However, it's really interesting, so here is the link to the website:

Scotch whiskey, heather honey and herbs. The recipe was a reward for helping Bonnie Prince Charlie who in 1745, unsuccessfully, tried to regain his throne. The recipe is still in the same family.
