Grand Marnier

Kuvaus

The original liqueur created in 1880 by Louis-Alexandre Marnier Lapostolle. A delicate blend of fine cognacs and distilled essence of tropical oranges with Marnier-Lapostolle's secret touch. Slow ageing in French oak casks gives it incomparable roundness and subtlety. Complex nose of orange flowers combined with scents of candied zests and toffee. Bitter orange flavours are enhanced by the cognac with nuances of orange marmalade and hazelnuts.
