Product description
In 1885, a pharmacist and owner of a pharmacy in Angers, Émile Giffard, developed the formula for the Menthe-Pastille liqueur, which soon conquered Europe.
The company he founded remains in the family hands to this day and is managed by his great-great-grandchildren, siblings Bruno and Edith Giffard, and its commercial offer of liqueurs and bartender syrups includes over a hundred items. Among them is a series of fruit creams bottled with a relatively low alcohol content and increased sugar content. The key to the high quality of Giffard's products is over 130 years of family tradition and experience in maceration of fresh fruit and herbs using new techniques most appropriate for a given variety. The company remains in close contact with the most creative bartenders and is constantly working on expanding the offer with new flavors.
The Liqueur de Rhubarbe presented here is the result of slow maceration of red and green rhubarb. The taste is slightly sour and tart, the rhubarb is "sweetened" slightly with hints of strawberries. Giffard recommends the Rhubarb Triangle cocktail (45ml gin, 45ml Liqueur de Rhubarbe, 7.5ml extra dry vermouth and 7.5ml apple juice).
