Created during the Industrial Revolution, this family business was originally a confectionary shop that expanded into making liqueurs. In cocktails, Cointreau serves as a flavor amplifier, helping reveal the other ingredients while bringing balance, depth, and freshness to the mix.
Tasting Notes
Appearance : Cointreau is no stranger to the unexpected. Its deep amber bottle conceals a visual surprise: a perfectly transparent liqueur. When mixed, the crystalline liqueur becomes opalescent, a physical testament to the high concentration of orange essence.
Nose : Zesty, fresh, floral, sweet… With a spectrum of more than 40 olfactive notes, Cointreau is a captivating ode to orange on its own and an enhancer of other flavors when mixed.
Mouth : Â It has an instant freshness yet lingers on the palate, is a harmonious blend of nuanced notes yet remains intensely orange.
