Description
Drawing on Grand Marnier Cordon Rouge heritage, the fifth and sixth generations of the Marnier-Lapostolle family have created Quintessence, a sublime reinterpretation of the original creation. Long-aged Grand Champagne cognacs some coming from Paradis itself, are combined with twice-distilled bigaradia citrus essence. The bigaradia peel is soaked in neat alcohol to create the first distillate; another batch of peel is then added to achieve a double distillation, which refines and intensifies the aroma. These intricate processes help to develop an exceptional aromatic richness - never has a liqueur been so exciting...
Created in 2011, Quintessence epitomizes all that Grand Marnier Cordon Rouge stands for along with the Marnier Lapostolle family’s know-how. A blend of exceptional and very old cognacs, mainly from Grande Champagne and twice distilled Citrus bigaradia orange essence lends Quintessence its exceptionally rich flavour. Its carafe-style bottle is all curves and transparency, a tribute to this liqueur’s perfection.Expert Review
“Colour: Vibrant amber hues and copper reflections when light plays on its texture.
Aroma: Fresh, lively and delectable, lovely orange notes followed by fruity, floral and heavier notes of almond and vanilla.
Flavour: Elegant and subtle harmony. Well-integrated notes of citrus fruit, vanilla, caramel, almond and honey. The finish is exceptionally long lasting.”
