Gabriel Boudier is a family-owned French liqueur house founded in 1874 in Dijon, originally established in the house of Fontbonne before Gabriel Boudier took over the business in 1909 and renamed it after himself. In 1936, following Boudier's death, his widow sold the house to Marcel Battault, whose family has steered Gabriel Boudier ever since — making it the only remaining independently owned liqueur producer among what were once more than 50 fruit liqueur houses in Burgundy. Renowned worldwide for its award-winning Crème de Cassis de Dijon, Gabriel Boudier uses only natural fruits, flowers and botanicals across its range, avoiding artificial flavours and colours, and continues to innovate through its cocktail-focused Bartender Range alongside classic, traditional expressions like this Chestnut Liqueur.

Gabriel Boudier keeps this liqueur's recipe deliberately simple and honest: ripe melons sourced from Honduras and China are macerated whole in neutral alcohol at the house's facilities in Dijon, with the resulting juice lightly sweetened — no preservatives, and none of the "commercial compromises" the brand explicitly avoids across its range. That straightforward, ingredient-first approach gives the finished liqueur a genuinely authentic melon character, independently praised as "balanced and authentic-tasting" rather than the artificial, overly sweet profile common in mass-market melon liqueurs. Its striking, almost luminescent lime-green colour makes it a genuine visual standout behind the bar, popular in tropical cocktails, spritzes and summer serves where both bold colour and real flavour are wanted. Part of Gabriel Boudier's celebrated Bartender Range — described by the house as leading the way for sociable, trend-setting occasions — it's a versatile, eye-catching addition for anyone building a warm-weather or tiki-inspired cocktail programme.
