Cognac Ferrand's innovative owner Alexandre Gabriel, followed an old recipe and modified it to create this curaçao. While Curaçao and sweet oranges are the main ingredients, vanilla, prunes and lemon peel are amongst the other botanicals called for in the old recipe.
Alexandre has kept the sugar content to a minimum for a truly 'dry curaçao' at just 180 grams per litre.

Appearance:
Clear, bright golden.
Aroma:
Mandarin (small sweet orange) zest with lemon zest and vanilla influenced stewed fruit aromas.
Taste:
Slightly sweet, but beautifully balanced and far from cloying, zesty orange with vanilla, rosewater-like floral flavours and delicate cinnamon and black pepper spice.
Aftertaste:
Long, cleansing, zesty orange with enlivening spice.
