Giffard Apricot Du Roussillon – 700 ml
Giffard Abricot du Roussillon is a premium fruit liqueur produced in France, specifically within the Loire Valley. The spirit is crafted by Giffard, an independent family distillery founded in 1885 by Emile Giffard, a pharmacist from Angers who first gained renown for his Menthe Pastille. Five generations later, the company remains family owned and operated, continuing its tradition of macerating high quality local fruits and botanicals. This particular expression features the 'Rouges du Roussillon' apricot variety, sourced from orchards not far from the Giffard facility.
Description
The liqueur is produced through the slow maceration of the firm, sweet, and aromatic pink flesh and skin of Roussillon apricots in neutral spirit.
Colour: It presents a brilliant golden yellow with fine orange shades.
Aroma: The bouquet reveals itself in stages, starting with the sweetness of very ripe apricot, followed by a slight vegetal touch, and finishing with sweet spices like vanilla and caramel.
Palate: The taste is exceptionally round, smooth, and sweet, reminiscent of caramelized apricot compote.
Body: It offers a rich, juicy mouthfeel with a natural, true to fruit balance of tartness and jammy intensity.
Finish: The exit is clean and mouth watering, carrying persistent notes of almond and stewed fruit.
ABV: This liqueur is bottled at 25%.
