Liqueur made from infusion of Rouges du Roussillon apricots.
Size: 750mL
Proof: 50 (25% ABV)

This apricot liqueur is made with an infusion of ripe 'Rouge du Roussillon' apricots by Giffard & Cie, a fourth generation family-owned and run liqueur producer in France's Loire Valley.
Nose: The bouquet is revealed in stages : sweetness of ripe apricot at first, then a slight vegetal hint, and sweet spices.
Palate:The taste is at first very round and smooth mouth.
Finish: Caramelized apricot at the end.
At that time, mile Giffard was a dispensing chemist living in Angers (Val de Loire).He had an inventive, inquiring mind, and was a gourmet as well. He took an interest in the digestive and refreshing properties of mint, and ended up concocting a pure, clear and refined white mint liqueur which he promptly put to the test by offering the guests at the Grand Hotel a sip of his cordial as a relief against the heat wave.
Having found instant success, mile turned his pharmacy into a distillery and named his liqueur Menthe-Pastille , in reference to the tiny mint sweets that were all the rage in those days./p>
Five generations later, the family business still bears the GIFFARD name and is proud to uphold the high standards of quality instilled by its original creator.
