Curacao Triple Sec
A selection of sweet oranges from Brazil and Florida (Pera) and bitter oranges from
The Ivory Coast and Sicily (Bigarade) results in a bouquet of notes, smooth and
sour altogether. The different flavors call to mind the Curaçao Island
and the West Indies.
The maceration of orange zest in pure alcohol in a copper pot still during several
hours is followed by a distillation.
The resulting orange spirit is blended with crystallized sugar, water to lower the
percentage of alcohol and coloring when needed. The final liqueur is filtered before
bottling.
