ThePapski
Reviewed March 1, 2026 3.5 3.5 out of 5 stars Nose: orange, lemon peel, cinnamon Taste: reflects the nose with some almond, Amaretto notes in there as well. Excellent, rich mouthfeel and flavors. Yes its mainstream but its a high quality triple sec with some depth. I'd choose this over Pierre Ferrands Dry Curacao. 35.0 USD per Bottle Close Modal Comment on ThePapski's review of Cointreau Like ThePapski's review of Cointreau Show Comments ( 0 ) for ThePapski's review of Cointreau -

Reviewed January 29, 2025 (edited September 21, 2025) 4.0 4.0 out of 5 stars Review #8 - Liqueur #2 Nose - bright, with strong aromas of orange peel, maybe with some floral undertones as well. Palate - clean, sweet but fresh, with a rich orange flavour with some slight bitterness from the orange peel. The alcohol is quite noticeable for a liquor, but it is fine. Finish - medium-long, sweet with persistent notes of oranges. The texture is not as oily as in other liquors, It is pleasant, at times seemingly unrefined and a bit harsh when consumed neat, but it is good and sweet. I do recommend it. Orange Sweet 25.0 EUR per Bottle Close Modal Comment on CristianC's review of Cointreau Like CristianC's review of Cointreau Show Comments ( 0 ) for CristianC's review of Cointreau -
AnttiRG
Reviewed October 23, 2024 4.0 4.0 out of 5 stars It has an aromatic birth with notes of tree fruits, citrus & flowers; while a rich & full life adds notes of candied orange rinds & bitter oranges; that led to a syrupy death of medium length. November 2015 / 2016 / July / September / November 2017 / May 2018 / October 2024 29.99 USD per Bottle Close Modal Comment on AnttiRG's review of Cointreau Like AnttiRG's review of Cointreau Show Comments ( 0 ) for AnttiRG's review of Cointreau - ADVERTISEMENT - CONTINUE READING BELOW

Reviewed April 17, 2024 (edited April 19, 2024) 3.25 3.25 out of 5 stars Not my taste to drink neat, too orangy and slightly artifical taste. In cocktails, it gets the job done.

Reviewed June 9, 2023 3.25 3.25 out of 5 stars Sweet orange and hints of spice. Its pretty smooth but not a huge fan of it alone. Prefer in a margarita with a nice tequila to balance the sweetness.

Reviewed February 16, 2023 (edited February 19, 2023) 4.0 4.0 out of 5 stars I would consider Cointreau to be the best orange liqueur out there. Grand Marnier sort of falls into this category and is right there with it, but if you have to choose an orange liqueur or triple sec for a mixed drink, this should be your top choice. On the nose you get dried orange peel. The palate starts a bit bitter, but not in a bad way. It's actually very dry and much thinner than most orange liqueurs. The orange notes are there throughout and kind of reminds me of an orange gummy slice. It closes with a nice touch of sweetness and almost no burn. If you are used to using the various triple sec's out there in your cocktails and upgrade to this, you will notice a big difference. This is drier and stronger (at 80 proof) and unlike many of the triple sec's not artificial tasting. It does come at a cost, but I think it's worth the upgrade. If you are serious about your cocktails, then I would definitely have a bottle of this around, along with Grand Marnier and Pierre Ferrand Dry Curacao. 35.0 USD per Bottle Close Modal- cascode
