Tasting review
Tasting review by Merlet Cognac:
Nose: Lemon clearly shines through, with notes of ginger, liquorice, & spice.
Palate: A flavor explosion. The Cognac, lemon, & limes are in perfect harmony. The freshness of the citrus peels appears, with notes of vanilla, fruit, & the Cognac’s wood. Powerful blackcurrant followed by blackberry jam. The finish is long, tangy, & slightly bitter with spicy notes.
Description
The Merlet Liqueur C2 Citron is a wonderful combination of Cognac, lemon, and lime. The first aromas are definitely of lemon, and then when you take a sip, experience a harmonious union of citrus flavors with the luxury of Cognac.
The liqueur is created with infusions of the fruits, along with 70% Cognac - a little sugar added at the end of the process makes for a satisfying, yet not-overpowering sweetness. Enjoy on the rocks as a digestif, or combined with a mixer for the perfect aperitif. It's also a great choice to use in your favorite cocktail.

About Merlet Cognac
With a traceable history dating back to 1850, the Merlet family have continued to produce cognac, alongside a continually growing range of other products, to the current day. Headed today by Gilles Merlet, his sons Pierre and Luc joined the business a few years back, bringing with them a new generation of enthusiasm and direction. Although the house Distillerie Merlet & Fils originally produced eaux-de-vie for some of the most prestigious cognac houses in the world of cognac, they are now famous in their own right, not only for their quality cognacs, but for their innovative range of other products that sell around the globe.
