XANTE is quite unlike any other spirit; you can't categorize it or substitute it for something else.While the label may say it is a 38% liqueur based on a secret blend of pear and cognac, that is only half the truth. XANTE Pear and Cognac Liqueur is a drinking experience where the result of four generations of passionate dedication to blending have ensured that the smoothness of ripe pears is perfectly balanced with the intensity of a fine cognac into an almost addictive taste sensation.
