In 1880 Alexandre Marnier-Lapostolle created a fine orange flavored cognac liqueur and called it Grand Marnier. The beverage enjoyed a lot of success and its name remained in history to this day. Now a new blend of exceptionally old cognacs from Marnier-Lapostolle is here to delight connoisseurs’ taste buds. Called Grand Marnier Quintessence, the beverage was obtained with hard work and attention to detail, in a special production procedure that ensured a unique velvety orange perfume.
The eaux de vie used for the Quintessence come from the first cru of the Cognac region of Grand Champagne. These cognacs have been aged for between 25 and 100 years. A total of twenty different cognacs have been used for the new, fine blend. One bottle of this fine beverage costs $700.
