Cointreau L'Unique Orange Liqueur 750ml
Cointreau L'Unique is the original triple sec orange liqueur, founded in 1849 by brothers Adolphe and Edouard-Jean Cointreau in Angers, France. The recipe was perfected in 1875 by Edouard Cointreau, son of Edouard-Jean, who created a liqueur more concentrated in flavor and less sweet than the curacaos of the era, naming it Triple Sec and establishing the iconic square amber bottle recognized worldwide today. L'Unique distinguishes this classic expression from other products in the modern Cointreau range, such as Cointreau Noir.
Crafted from bitter orange peels sourced from the Caribbean and sweet orange peels from Spain, blended with neutral alcohol, sugar, and water, this crystal-clear liqueur is bottled at 40% ABV. The nose brings an explosive, fresh, and zesty bouquet of bitter and sweet orange peel, layered with delicate floral and spicy undertones. The palate opens with instant freshness, balancing sweet, juicy orange against bitter orange complexity, finishing with lingering citrus warmth.
At the heart of more than 350 classic cocktails, including the original Margarita, Sidecar, and Cosmopolitan, Cointreau L'Unique remains the benchmark orange liqueur behind the world's best bartenders, making it an essential addition to any home bar.
