Francois Peyrot Cerise au Cognac

Description

Francois Peyrot Cerise au Cognac is a French cherry liqueur built on the richness of Cognac. Natural cherry aroma gives it ripe red fruit, gentle sweetness, and a smooth brandy-backed finish, while the 21% ABV keeps it easy to use in cocktails. It is a strong choice for customers looking for a cherry liqueur with more depth than a standard neutral-spirit cordial.

Producer

Cognac François Peyrot comes from the Domaine des Bergeronnettes in Grande Champagne, the premier cru of Cognac. The family began distilling and producing Cognac in 1956, then François and Gisèle Peyrot launched their own brand in 1970 and sold their first VSOP in July 1971. François also developed a full range of Cognac-based liqueurs made with natural fruit aromas and Grande Champagne Cognac.

Cocktail Suggestions

Francois Peyrot Cerise au Cognac brings a darker cherry note to a Singapore Sling with gin, citrus, pineapple, and bitters. Used in place of a standard cherry liqueur, it adds more Cognac warmth and fruit depth while still giving the cocktail its essential cherry backbone.

It also fits well in a Cherry Sidecar with Cognac, fresh lemon juice, and orange liqueur. The cherry liqueur reinforces the brandy base with ripe red fruit and sweetness, while the lemon keeps the cocktail bright, balanced, and clean.
