In 1870 the founders Eugène Lapostolle is forced to leave Paris, this due to the French-German war, and he ends up in Charente. Back in Paris with a stock of Fine Champagne Cognac his assistant Louis-Alexandre Marnier starts blending this Cognac with orange liqueur and around 1880 he has perfected the recipe for a liqueur which he named Curaçao Marnier.

It was in 1892 that César Ritz tasted this liqueur and recommended his friend to change this name to Grand Marnier to emphasize its grand nature and as such Grand Marnier was born.

This is the old presentation of Grand Marnier Cordon Rouge, bottled in 1989.

Cherry Marnier was one of the first fruit liqueurs created at the family's original distillery founded in 1827 in Neauphle-le-Château, near Versailles. Initially marketed as Cherry-Brandy, Cherry-Cognac or a combination of both names it was renamed Cherry Marnier in 1966, still bottled at 30% abv which was reduced to 25% in 1975 and further reduced to 24% in 1983, adapting the product to the consumer demand for low alcohol products, without harming its intrinsic quality.

Cherry Marnier was withdrawn from the US market in 1999 and from then on only available in a select number of European countries. In 2016 Campari Group became mayor shareholder and subsequently Cherry Marnier phased out January 1st 2017.

In 1977, Grand Marnier released the limited anniversary edition “Cuvée Spéciale Cent Cinquantenaire”, produced with a blend of 50-year-old Cognac, sold in hand-painted bottles shaped after a 1927 limited edition Baccarat design, and marketed using the slogan “Hard to find, impossible to pronounce, and prohibitively expensive.” We have been told just 2000 of these bottles from the 1st batch were produced.

Subsequently Marnier released "Cuvée du Cent Cinquantenaire" which was a blend of 25-30 year old Cognac with a portion of 'up to 50-year old Cognac'. This predecessor came in 3 different versions but unfortunately was discontinued in 2013, with strategists deeming that there wasn’t enough “liquid differentiation” between Cent Cinquantenaire and the lesser Cuvée du Centenaire, replacing Cent Cinquantenaire with the Cuvée 1880, which had a slightly higher cognac content. This one was bottled in 1999.

In 1977 Grand Marnier celebrated their 150th anniversary with the release of Cuvée Spéciale Cent Cinquantenaire, containing 50-year-old Grande Champagne Cognac, sold in 2000 individual numbered hand-painted bottles, marketed using the slogan “Hard to find, impossible to pronounce, and prohibitively expensive.” The decanter was shaped after a 1927 limited edition Baccarat decanter.

The production of Cuvée Spéciale Cent Cinquantenaire continued for a number of years but at some point the name changed to Cuvée du Cent Cinquantenaire, made with 25-50 year old Cognac.

According to some Cuvée du Cent Cinquantenaire phased out in 2013, with strategists deeming that there wasn’t enough “liquid differentiation” between Cent Cinquantenaire and the lesser Cuvée du Centenaire, replacing Cent Cinquantenaire with the Cuvée 1880, which had a slightly higher Cognac content. In reality the production of Cent Cinquantenaire was continued until 2017, after David Campari became mayor shareholder.

Grand Marnier Quintessence, released in September 2011, was inspired by a historic Grand Marnier recipe that calls for macerating Bigaradia orange in cognac: the company’s Historic Master Blender, Patrick Raguenaud, discovered it in the archives. Crafted with hors d'âge cognacs exclusively from Grande Champagne and personal reserves from the Marnier Lapostolle family’s personal cellar, vintages 1875-1906-1955, the spirit is then blended with macerated Bigaradia orange peels and double-distilled to create depth of flavor. The result is a rich and velvety copper-colored liqueur with bright aromas of vanilla, almond, and orange blossom, and complex, woody notes of toasted walnut, stone fruit, and bitter orange.
