Pierre Ferrand Dry Curacao Yuzu - 750ml

Description

Pierre Ferrand Dry Curacao Yuzu Late Harvest is a limited French citrus liqueur that adds late-harvest yuzu to Ferrand’s historic dry curaçao style. It layers bright yuzu, bitter orange peel, lemon, vanilla, almond, prune, Cognac, and French brandy into a sharper, more aromatic alternative to standard orange liqueur. Bottled at 40% ABV, it has the structure for Margaritas, Sidecars, Mai Tais, and other serious cocktails.

Producer

Pierre Ferrand is part of Maison Ferrand, the French spirits house led by Alexandre Gabriel. Ferrand Dry Curacao was developed with cocktail historian David Wondrich to revive a 19th-century style of curaçao, built around Cognac, French brandy, and citrus peel. The Yuzu Late Harvest edition was made with hand-picked yuzu from L’Agrumiste, one of the producers known for high-quality yuzu.

Cocktail Suggestions

Pierre Ferrand Dry Curacao Yuzu Late Harvest is an excellent orange liqueur choice for a Margarita with tequila or mezcal and fresh lime juice. Its yuzu acidity sharpens the citrus profile, while the Cognac base and bitter orange peel give the drink more depth than a basic triple sec.

It also brings a bright twist to a Sidecar with Cognac and fresh lemon juice. The yuzu echoes the lemon, the orange peel keeps the cocktail anchored in classic curaçao territory, and the Cognac base ties naturally into the brandy structure of the drink.
