Marie Brizard Orange Curaçao

Marie Brizard Orange Curaçao hails from Bordeaux, France, with a heritage stretching back to 1755 when Marie Brizard, a pioneering female distiller, founded the company. Known for its wide array of high-quality liqueurs, the Marie Brizard brand is a well-established name in the spirits world, recognized for its traditional production methods and expertise. This particular orange curaçao is crafted by distilling Haitian bitter oranges and sweet orange zest from Southern Spain, blended with aromatic plants, Cognac, and other eaux-de-vie, resulting in its characteristic flavor. It's an old classic, not a new creation, and the company itself boasts a long history of international trade and award-winning spirits.

Marie Brizard Orange Curaçao offers a balanced profile of sweet and bitter orange, derived from Haitian bitter oranges and sweet Spanish orange zest, with a touch of Cognac. This craft spirit shines in classic cocktails like the Sidecar and Mai Tai, contributing a vibrant, natural orange essence. It's a versatile addition to your home bar for tropical and citrus-forward concoctions.

This particular Orange Curaçao greets you with sweet orange zest and hints of bitter peel, much like orange candy. A smooth, syrupy texture delivers an initial burst of candied orange, evolving into a more complex citrus medley where bitter orange balances the sweetness, finishing with a pleasant, lingering bittersweet orange peel essence.
