Basil Grande

One day in 1880, César Ritz sampled a grandiose, enchanting liquor. Made from cognac and essence of oranges, he named it Grand Marnier, as a tribute to its creator Louis-Alexandre Marnier-Lapostolle. This moment would mark the beginning of a great friendship between the two men, which lasted throughout their lifetime.
