Pierre Ferrand Dry Curacao Yuzu Late Harvest
Pierre Ferrand Dry Curacao Yuzu Late Harvest – Rare Special Edition Orange Liqueur
A rare and extraordinary expression from the house of Pierre Ferrand, the Dry Curacao Yuzu Late Harvest reimagines the classic 19th-century Curacao recipe with a stunning twist — the addition of late-harvest Yuzu from Morocco.

Dry, complex, and deeply aromatic, this limited expression bridges the worlds of classic European liqueur craft and the exotic citrus traditions of East Asia.
