Grand Marnier
View Full Description [+ Read More]
Grand Marnier is a French liqueur house producing cognac-based orange liqueurs, founded in 1880 and headquartered in Paris. Each expression blends cognac distilled from Ugni Blanc grapes with bitter orange essence derived from wild tropical oranges. The core Cordon Rouge, available in both 750ml and 1-liter formats, anchors the range and serves as the standard orange liqueur reference point. Rarer vintage and archival bottlings include the Cordon Rouge Vintage 1970s-1980s, the Cordon Jaune Mexico 1970s-1980s, and the Cuvee de Centenaire 1980s. The Cuvee Speciale Cent Cinquantenaire 150, including the historic 1977 bottling, represents a higher tier blending older cognac reserves, while the Quintessence Liqueur Original Release stands as the most elevated expression in the house's portfolio.
