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. Briottet’s white Peppermint Liqueur is produced by distilling mint leaves — mainly peppermint leaves — and then by adding some fine French sugar. It is pure, well-balanced and very refreshing. It gives off a wonderful scent.
