Giffard Au Piment D'Espelette Liqueur 40% ABV 700ml

Giffard Au Piment d’Espelette Liqueur is a bold and distinctive French liqueur infused with the celebrated Piment d’Espelette, a prized chilli pepper from the Basque region of France. Crafted by the renowned Giffard house, this unique liqueur delivers a refined balance of gentle heat, aromatic spice, and subtle sweetness—complex yet beautifully controlled.

Unlike overly fiery chilli spirits, this expression showcases warmth rather than burn, allowing the pepper’s fruity, smoky, and slightly earthy character to shine. Exceptionally versatile, it adds depth and intrigue to cocktails, culinary creations, or can be enjoyed in small sips for adventurous palates.
