Briottet Liqueur de Coquelicot (Poppy) Liqueur

Briottet Liqueur de Coquelicot (Poppy) Liqueur is a vibrant, floral spirit crafted in Dijon, France, by the renowned Briottet distillery. This unique liqueur captures the delicate essence of red poppy petals (coquelicot), a flower historically significant in the region. Unlike some liqueurs, the flavor profile is subtle yet complex, offering soft, slightly sweet, and earthy notes reminiscent of rose and almond, without being excessively saccharine. Its striking, naturally derived ruby-red color makes it an eye-catching addition to any cocktail. It is typically enjoyed as a digestif, but its subtle floral characteristics make it an excellent modifier in contemporary mixology, pairing beautifully with gin, Champagne, or simply a splash of soda water for a light, refreshing drink.
