The House of Marnier Lapostolle is proud to announce the release of Grand Marnier Raspberry Peach.  Just in time for the season of holiday partying. If you’re looking to get in your hands on this adult beverage, you should do it before time runs out.  A limited amount of cases are shipped to the United States market and once the blend is sold out, it is no longer available in the US.

The Grand Marnier Signature Collection Series is an all natural fusion of fresh fruit ingredients and exotic orange essence blended with premium Cognac and combines succulent European raspberries and rare red peaches from Ardèche in the South of France.

“We are excited to introduce Grand Marnier Raspberry Peach and to launch our second Signature Collection limited release blend,” says Alexandra Marnier Lapostolle.  “With these special flavor offerings we seek to generate excitement and reward our loyal Grand Marnier consumers, while also engaging a broader audience with a truly innovative and natural taste.”
