Original Combier, the world’s first triple sec, is made according to the exact specifications of a proprietary recipe created in Saumur, France in 1834 by Jean-Baptiste Combier and his wife Josephine. Over the years, many have attempted to imitate the authentic taste of Original Combier using synthetic flavoring, shortcuts in the production and distillation process, or alterations in alcohol content – all to no avail.
The bright, citrus flavor, clear character and smooth finish of Original Combier is unparalleled, a testament to the painstaking process and strict traditions that still go into making each bottle today.
Original Combier is best enjoyed by itself over fresh ice or in any classic or modern cocktail that calls for triple sec or orange liqueur.
