Ruby red and packed with ripe cherry - Giffard's Cherry Liqueur is a French tribute to one of Europe's most classic fruit flavours.
Expert's Description
Giffard's Cherry Liqueur is a French fruit liqueur at 25% ABV, made through the maceration of sweet and sour cherries and raspberries, from the French liqueur house Giffard.
Giffard is a French, family-owned liqueur house from Angers in the Loire Valley, founded in 1885 by the pharmacist and herbalist Émile Giffard, who invented a white mint liqueur with digestive properties. Its success led him to convert his pharmacy into a distillery, and today - five generations later - the house is still family-run, producing more than 60 fruit and herbal liqueurs for bartenders and cocktail enthusiasts around the world. The Giffard Classic Liqueurs range is crafted with a focus on natural ingredients, authentic flavours and classic French craftsmanship, delivering a reliable and versatile base for any cocktail.
Taste
The nose is intensely fruity with ripe cherry and cherry marmalade, alongside a touch of roasted almond. The palate is fresh and fruity with an acidity that brings liveliness, while a slightly syrupy cherry richness is balanced by toasty notes, almond and bitter fruit tannins. The finish carries a warm brandy fullness.

Did You Know?
Did you know that cherry liqueur has a long tradition in Denmark? Peter Heering founded his iconic Danish cherry liqueur house back in 1818, and cherry has since been one of the most classic flavours in European liqueur production - a tradition that Giffard's French cherry liqueur is part of.
