Maison Briottet is a family business, founded in 1836. Originally, the family were primarily negociants of Burgundy wine, involved with ageing, blending, bottling and selling the wines. Following the development of the blanc cassis aperitif (white wine with Creme de Cassis), the company progressively focused its activities on producing fruit cremes, liqueurs, brandies and marcs de Bourgogne. Briottet’s liqueurs are acclaimed by the world’s best bartenders to create unique cocktails. Passion fruit or “maracuja” come from the Passiflora edulis vine species, a climbing plant which originated in Paraguay, Brazil and in the north-east of Argentina. Briottet’s flavoursome liqueur marries perfectly with all types of fruit juice and more especially with orange juice and with apple juice.
