Maison Briottet maintains a very high level of quality. It is the selection of the ripest fruit from the most suitable cultivars that provides for the finest flavours; therefore contracting the right growers to produce the correct fruit is the first step on the ladder. Subsequently, properly observed maceration with very pure neutral alcohol, and blending with the correct proportion of sugars to achieve the balance between fruit flavour, sweetness, acidity and alcohol create these excellent crèmes and liqueurs. Briottet Liqueur de Mangue is made by macerating the sweet flesh of the mango in alcohol prior to sweetening with sugar to make the final mango liqueur.
It has a striking red colour of fresh strawberries with an unmistakable strawberry aroma and the flavour of the luscious and fruity flavour of sun-ripened strawberries.
