This liqueur is either considered a premium triple sec or a liqueur depending on who you ask. It sells considerably more than your standard triple sec but is also almost twice as strong as most.
Started by two brothers in 1875, Remy Cointreau now sells it in over 200 countries. Uses a blend of bitter and sweet orange peels extracted and distilled with neutral ethyl alcohol (from sugar beets).
Tasting Notes Clear in both clarity and its intense orange aroma. It is full-bodied and is sweet on the palate with a strong orange flavor. The alcohol strength helps to keep the orange liqueur from being cloying but the raw spirit peaks out at times. Very mild spices like cinnamon and nutmeg appear.
