Cointreau and Cognac create a perfect blend

A new Cointreau expression is being launched for 2013 in global travel retail.

Cointreau Noir is the result of an alliance between Bernadette Langlais, master distiller at the House of Cointreau, and Pierrette Trichet, cellar master at Rémy Martin. Together they have created a perfect blend of the Cointreau orange liqueur and the Rémy Martin Cognac.

Bottled at 40% ABV, this premium expression in the Cointreau range is fruity and fresh on the palate with a smooth texture, its zesty orange peel flavour well-balanced with the sweetness of vanilla and the mellow warmth of oak notes.

Cointreau Noir will be launched first in travel retail in the Americas this autumn followed by Asia and Europe.
