Cointreau Noir is the ultimate mix of Cointreau orange liqueur and the finest cognac, Rémy Martin. The freshness of the orange flavour, with the velvety smooth caress of Cognac, makes it an exceptional alternative to premium dark spirits. Sophisticated aromas, such as a touch of spice, notes of vanilla, honey, nuts, almonds, and gingerbread, give it a particular mellow finish. Cointreau Noir is rich enough to be enjoyed on its own, neat or on ice. Its depth, complexity, and versatility also make it perfect for premium, well-crafted cocktails.
“Mixing our brands’ worlds was a fabulous experience.”
"Mixing our brands' worlds was a fabulous experience. I have really enjoyed working on obtaining the perfect balance between Cointreau's aromatic complexity and Rémy Martin cognac's richness. I love tasting Cointreau Noir with friends, it's like sharing a moment in a boudoir."
Carole Quinton – Cointreau's Master Distiller.
"It has been a very exciting journey to collaborate with Carole, Cointreau's Master Distiller, and craft this exquisite new mix. The result is a symphony of expertise, marrying the heritage of cognac craftsmanship and ageing with the bold character of orange, a spirit that not only honours the past but also paves the way for a new era of refined indulgence."
Baptiste Loiseau, Rémy Martin's Cellar Master
