The story behind it

The maker

Founded in 1849 by brothers Adolphe and Édouard-Jean Cointreau, the brand revolutionized the liqueur category with its balanced, dry style. Édouard Cointreau perfected the recipe in 1875, creating a crystal-clear spirit that soon became a global cornerstone of mixology.

How it is made

Crafted in Angers, France, this premium triple sec uses a selection of sweet and bitter orange peels dried under the sun. The precise distillation process in copper alembic stills preserves the essential oils to yield its signature aroma.
