Triple-distilled to 38% ABV, it offers a complex citrus-forward profile with warm cognac undertones. Perfect neat, on ice, or as a sophisticated cocktail and culinary ingredient, it embodies over 200 years of heritage originally crafted for Napoleon Bonaparte. ## Description Product Description Historical Roots: Mandarine Napoléon boasts a rich heritage that dates back to the early 1800s. Originally crafted for Napoléon Bonaparte by the renowned chemist Antoine-François de Fourcroy, its legacy intertwines with notable figures and their pursuits of excellence. The closely guarded recipe, discovered in Fourcroy's diary by Belgian chemist Louis Schmidt in the late 19th century, remains a secret passed down through generations. Exquisite Composition: This premium liqueur is a harmonious blend of 10-year-old aged cognac and vibrant mandarins, further enhanced by the addition of select spices. The mandarins, sourced from Sicily, are celebrated for their fine peel and zest-rich quality, ensuring an unmatched depth in flavor. Triple-Distilled Brilliance: Mandarine Napoléon undergoes a meticulous triple distillation process to capture the intense essence of mandarin. The method ensures a high concentration of the fruit's rich aromas and flavors, making the liqueur truly distinctive. Versatility in Use: Beyond sipping it neat or over ice with tonic, Mandarine Napoléon seamlessly integrates into a plethora of classic cocktails, with the Napoleon Margarita being an all-time favorite. Additionally, its unique flavor profile enhances culinary creations, making it an ideal ingredient for desserts, pancakes, and ice cream. Complex Flavor Profile: Mandarine Napoléon's allure lies in its intricate blend of mandarin and twenty-one botanicals. This secret combination creates a multidimensional taste, offering drinkers a journey through its citrusy notes, warm cognac undertones, and subtle hints of exotic spices. Manufacturer Contact Information IMPORTED BY AMBER BEVERAGE UK, 76 CHARLOTTE STREET, W1T 40QS Review: Would buy again - It's quite fiery taken neat, but a nice different taste Review: Lovely stuff! - I highly recommend this. It has the beautiful nose of citrus (fresh mandarin zest, orange, lemon) that you’d expect, with a sweet and velvety texture to support its surprising complexity on the palate (citrus peel, vanilla, hints of tea). One thing I’d clarify, however, is that this is not entirely cognac-based: Only 2% of Napoléon is actually cognac (of undisclosed age or subregional provenance). Can you taste it? If you look for it, yes, but it is very subtle. Whatever its constituents, they work harmoniously in the end: the initial syrupy sweetness is balanced nicely by the very smooth but bracing warmth of the spirited finish at 38% abv. Along with a gentle acidity and bright citrus notes, this prevents the drink from seeming too cloying, in my amateur opinion. I’ve yet to try this with a ball of ice, but I think it would be equally good chilled for those who prefer things cold; likewise it’d be nice as a long drink with tonic (a combo I’ve frequently seen recommended), bitter and sweet complementing one another as they do. I find it somewhat drier than Grand Marnier Rouge or Licor 43, and certainly even more so than, say, Cointreau, sambucas or major coffee liqueurs; but it still tastes a tad sweeter than Grand Marnier Louis Alexandre, Galliano or Benedictine. Ultimately, Napoléon perhaps most resembles Drambuie in overall viscosity and sweetness (roughly speaking!). Give this liqueur a try! I think you’ll be pleased you did so. PS— Don’t swallow this drink too quickly. Instead, enjoy yourself as its character slowly washes over your palate and manifests in a rewarding, warm and citrusy glow.

Go look up a cocktail called Ten Pin Gin - omit the egg white if that puts you off. Trust me, do it now - it's like a mandarin Martini. Also makes a lovely variant of a bucks fizz, i.e. less OJ and a measure of this. ## Frequently Bought Together - Mandarine Napoléon French Liqueur 70cl, 38% ABV, A Time-Honored Blend of Aged Cognac & Sicilian Mandarins, Triple Distilled with Rich Botanicals, Ideal for Cocktails & Cooking - Grand Marnier- Cordon Rouge Cognac & Orange Liqueur, Essential Ingredient for the Grand Margarita cocktail 70cl - Cointreau Triple Sec, Orange Liqueur, 70cl --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.fr/products/81265458-mandarine-napoleon-liqueur-70-cl](https://www.desertcart.fr/products/81265458-mandarine-napoleon-liqueur-70-cl) --- *Product available on Desertcart France* *Store origin: FR* *Last updated: 2026-07-21*
