Joseph Cartron's Triple Sec Curaçao is made from the essential oils of two varieties of fruit: sweet orange (Para variety from Brazil and Florida) and bitter oranges (Bigarade from the Ivory Coast and Sicily).

Only the outer peel which contains the essential oils is used with the bitter pith meticulously discarded. The essential oils and pure alcohol are poured into a pot-still with a pear-shaped retort. The specific shape of the still increases the concentration of the aromas and some of the rising vapours condense on the cold sides of the retort and then fall back into the still. This recurs until the top of the still becomes sufficiently hot to allow the vapours to rise past the retort, through the swan neck and the serpentine condenser to emerge as spirit of orange.

The slow blending of crystallised sugar naturally lowers the alcohol content of the liqueur and helps amplify fruity orange flavours.

Store away from light and heat.
