Description
Cointreau is a premium French liqueur that was established in 1849 and created from a perfect balance of sweet and bitter orange peel. The unique character and flavour ensure that it is at the heart of the finest classic cocktails. Cointreau is equally enjoyed as a refreshing long drink topped with soda and a squeeze of lime.Tasting Notes
Appearance: Cointreau is perfectly colorless and characterized by its total transparency and remarkable brightness. The opalescence is the proof of the high oranges peel essences concentration. Nose: It releases pronounced aromas which are both refined and complex; the result of a marriage of zesty bitter oranges notes combined with the freshness of lemon and 7 vegetal notes with a hint of nutmeg and cardamom. These are followed by the fruity, rounded, soft notes of sweet oranges with a touch of candied fruit and vanilla. Mouth: Silky, almost creamy on the palate, with beautifully-balanced notes of orange zest and of candied orange. At the start, there is an orange flavour explosion, dominated by a sweet, full-bodied flavour, quickly balanced out by the warming sensation of the alcohol, and a slight bitterness. This is followed by a balanced blend of sweet and bitter flavours from the orange peel essences, which creates a pleasantly fresh sensation.Product Details
