Cointreau Liqueur 40%

Cointreau liqueur is the creation of Adolphe Cointreau, a confectioner inspired by the era of the French Industrial Revolution, who decided to expand the family business with a range of liqueurs. He was soon joined by his brother Edouard-Jean Cointreau, and in 1857 the first recipe for the famous orange liqueur appeared in the distillery's documents. In 1885, Édouard Cointreau managed to create a perfectly balanced liqueur, three times more concentrated and less sweet than those existing at that time. With this product, the Cointreau company made its mark during the Belle Époque. From the 1920s onwards, the company entered a period of maturity by popularising the brand and exporting its products worldwide. For decades, Cointreau distillers have been using the same production techniques, passed down from each generation. For Cointreau, oranges with intense aromas are selected from different varieties and blends of ingredients are created that give the final product a perfectly balanced taste. For the fine alcohol, the distillers use 19 copper stills, similar to those used by Édouard Cointreau over a century ago.
