About this spirit

Giffard Crème de Violette is a captivating violet liqueur crafted in France’s Loire Valley, using an infusion of violet flowers and extracts of violet leaves. Its striking deep purple hue with garnet tints evokes the elegance of spring blossoms and adds a touch of visual drama to any cocktail. The aroma is intensely floral, with notes of violet, rose, and a nostalgic hint of potpourri and lavender soap. On the palate, it delivers a delicate sweetness balanced by light acidity, unfolding flavours reminiscent of parma violet sweets, fresh petals, and a whisper of herbal complexity. The finish is smooth and lingering, with subtle traces of liquorice and lavender that gently fade, leaving a fragrant echo. Ideal for classic cocktails like the Aviation or Blue Moon, it also pairs beautifully with sparkling wine or dry white for a floral aperitif twist.
