Discover the unique Cointreau orange liqueur created in 1849, basis of more than 500 cocktail recipes: Balanced. Versatile. Aromatic. Inescapable.

As an orange liqueur with quality & production requirements, Cointreau is more than a triple sec. Why? Simply because a triple sec is the generic name used for any orange-flavoured spirit, while an “orange liqueur,” like Cointreau, actually goes a step further: as an officially recognised spirit category, there are certain production and quality requirements of the exceptional richness of 40+ aromas, coming from the highest quality sweet and bitter orange peels from the world’s finest terroirs, and 170 years+ of know-how—all resulting in a perfectly balanced cocktail. Thanks to an age-old expertise as Liquorist-Distiller, unique organoleptic qualities, and the Art of Cointreau (Art of Selection, Art of Harmony and Art of Distillation), Cointreau is an orange liqueur in a league of its own.

Like the crystalline orange liqueur housed within it, the Cointreau Original bottle has always stood in a category of its own. The original bottle subverted the conventions of its time, embracing square edges and amber glass— the hallmarks of its silhouette today.

Alfred Cointreau is part of the sixth generation of the Cointreau family and was born and raised in Angers, France. This alone would make him the ideal candidate for Heritage Manager of Maison Cointreau. But the thirty-something doesn’t rest on the laurels of his last name.

Born during the industrial revolution, Edouard Cointreau created the unique orange liqueur recipe in 1849, which became a famous triple sec product.
