Dijon's Liqueur House, Since 1874
Gabriel Boudier has made fruit liqueurs and cremes in Dijon for over 150 years, building its reputation on slow maceration of real fruit and a refusal to cut corners. The Bartender range, developed with top bartenders, takes that same fruit-first approach to the flavours a modern back bar actually needs — and few are more useful than lychee, the floral tropical fruit behind a generation of signature martinis. Browse the rest of the house's range and more French pours in our liqueurs collection and the wider spirits shelves.
Tasting Notes
Lush florals, fresh lychee and citrus blossom on the nose. The palate is silky and refreshing — juicy tropical fruit and gentle sweetness carried on a clean, light texture — closing with a fragrant, delicately dry finish. Award judges have praised its pale pink colour and the balance between soft lychee fruit, liqueur sweetness and finely distilled spirit.
How to Enjoy
The classic serve is a lychee martini, but it is just as happy lengthened into spritzes and tropical cocktails or splashed into sparkling wine. Build your next round from our cocktail ingredients, or pair it with a bottle from our rum collection for a tropical highball.
