Founded in Angers in 1849 by brothers Adolphe and Édouard-Jean Cointreau, the brand revolutionized the liqueur category with its balanced, dry-style triple sec. Édouard Cointreau perfected the recipe in 1875, establishing the iconic amber bottle and crystal-clear spirit that remains a world standard.
Crafted at the historic Angers distillery & production estate in France, Cointreau uses a precise blend of dried sweet and bitter orange peels. These peels are carefully macerated and copper-distilled to capture the purest, highly aromatic essential orange oils.
