I absolutely adore Grand Marnier. The perfect blend of orange and cognac. It is one liqueur I will never be without. Very nice for a winter warmer as well. Great strength at 40% abv too, very punchy and strong, rich flavor. Mix a small amount of Grand Marnier with Kaluah and Hot Chocolate for a very tasty desert cocktail called "Monte Chocso"

I keep several orange liquers including Cointreau at home, but Grand Marnier is my favourite. The secret is I think that they use Cognac instead of plain spirit like other orange liquers do which makes it great neat, or with an ice cube or a slice of lemon on a hot day. Adds some expense but it comes through as you get 2 sensation, one from aromatic and refreshing oranges used and another from the Cognac which is barrel matured. They make higher grades of Grand Marnier like the Cuvée du Centenaire (upto 25 year old Cognac), or the Cuvée Spéciale Cent Cinquantenaire (upto 50 year old Cognac) sadly Dans doesn't keep the higher levels.
