Pierre Ferrand Dry Curacao

Bright, bold, and utterly distinctive.
Pierre Ferrand Dry Curaçao revives a 19th-century formula at the historic Ferrand estate in France’s Cognac region. Sweet and bitter Laraha orange peels, coriander, and exotic spices macerate before copper-pot distillation and a light oak rest. The outcome is a luminous amber liqueur that sings at 80 proof. Its vibrant orange-forward character intertwines with warm spice and subtle oak depth. It elevates cocktails like the Sidecar or Negroni—and shines neat.

Nose: Zesty sweet orange arrives first, layered with coriander spice and dried apricot.

Palate: Vibrant citrus crescendo unfolds, revealing candied peel, tangerine, and warming baking spices.

Finish: Long, smooth fade with gentle oak warmth and lingering citrus zest.

Pair with duck à l’orange for a harmonious citrus-meets-richness match.
Offset its zesty sweetness alongside creamy triple-cream Brie or Camembert.
Complement artisanal dark chocolate for a decadent finale.
