What is Giffard Abricot Du Roussillon?
Giffard Abricot Du Roussillon is a premium French apricot liqueur that captures the essence of sun-ripened Roussillon apricots, known for their intense flavor and aroma. Interestingly, the Roussillon region, where these apricots are grown, is one of the sunniest areas in France, boasting over 300 days of sunshine per year, which contributes to the fruit's exceptional sweetness and complexity.
Why do we love Giffard Abricot Du Roussillon?
Giffard Abricot Du Roussillon stands out for its exceptional depth of flavor, crafted from apricots grown in France's sun-drenched Roussillon region. Unlike many fruit liqueurs that rely on artificial flavoring, this golden elixir captures the essence of ripe, juicy apricots through a meticulous maceration process, resulting in a remarkably authentic taste that elevates both classic and contemporary cocktails.
How do you drink Giffard Abricot Du Roussillon?
Giffard Abricot Du Roussillon shines in refreshing summer cocktails, particularly those with a light, fruity profile or as a delightful twist in classic champagne-based drinks. This apricot liqueur also pairs wonderfully with grilled peaches or nectarines for a sophisticated dessert, and can be enjoyed neat or over ice as a digestif, allowing its rich, sun-ripened apricot flavors to take center stage.

Nose: Ripe apricots dominate, with hints of peach and nectarine. A subtle floral note reminiscent of orange blossoms lingers in the background. There's a touch of honey sweetness and a faint almond-like aroma.
Palate: Intensely fruity with a smooth, syrupy texture. Fresh apricot flavors burst forward, balanced by a gentle acidity. Nuances of candied orange peel and vanilla add depth. The sweetness is prominent but not cloying, allowing the natural fruit flavors to shine.
Finish: Medium to long, with the apricot flavors slowly fading. A pleasant warmth develops, accompanied by a subtle spiciness reminiscent of cinnamon and nutmeg. The finish leaves a lingering fruity sweetness on the palate, with a slight tangy note that invites another sip.
