Cognac Ferrand's innovative owner Alexandre Gabriel, followed an old recipe and modified it to create this curaçao. While Curaçao and sweet oranges are...
Indeed a quaffable liqueur. I found cointreau to be way too sweet and one dimensional even with extra dilution, while Pierre Ferrand hits the spot even while neat, not to mention the pleasant woody notes.
Hi Simon & Team...
just thought I'd point out a 'typo' in the description above you may want to address — "sugar content many mean that cocktail" — there is a superfluous 'n' in there!
Another one to add to the list of fantastic liqueurs that I nonetheless find to be much better and more drinkable when you cut the sweetness and booziness with some ice cubes. After all, this is primarily used as a cocktail ingredient. With the ice it also brings out the more delicate floral notes.

For your Mai Tai recipe, I'm swapping this out for Giffard's Orange Curucao (24%ABV)
Any idea how much this will change the flavour?
