Abricot du Roussillon (Apricot)

Abricot du Roussillon Apricot
  • Apricot liqueur produced by Giffard in Angers, France
  • Base spirit distilled from sugar beets
  • Made with a maceration of Rouge du Roussillon apricots
  • Fresh apricot juice is added to sweeten the liqueur and impart a natural tartness
  • Sweetened with sugar beet sugar
  • The bouquet of Giffard’s Abricot du Roussillon is revealed in stages: the sweetness of very ripe apricot at first, then fresh vegetal notes, finishing with sweet spices, vanilla. Caramelized apricot leads the palate, followed by subtle hints of almond and a crisp, tart finish, like fresh apricot compote
  • 25% ABV

It is surprisingly difficult to find a perfect apricot, but Giffard remedies this problem with balanced fruit year-round. Abricot du Roussillon is the ideal liqueur for classic cocktails, such as the Pendennis Club, and works in some instances as a substitute for apricot brandy.
