Expert's Description

Giffard's Ginger of The Indies Premium Liqueur is a French Herbal liqueur based on ginger, bottled at 35% ABV.

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 liqueur is part of the Giffard Premium Liqueurs range, ten top-quality liqueurs created to be the leading flavour in a cocktail, where the origin of each main ingredient is carefully selected and guaranteed. This liqueur is made through slow maceration of Asian ginger root in neutral alcohol, with added orange blossom water and a touch of coriander.

Taste

The nose is strong with ginger and coriander, softened by a vanilla tone and lifted by the intensity of orange blossom. The palate starts sweet, but the spicy notes quickly take over with a peppery ginger sensation that plays warmth, sweetness and alcohol strength against citrus tang. The finish is a lingering ginger heat with a touch of lime and fragrant orange blossom.
