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.

This liqueur is part of a genuinely distinctive collaborative series, developed in partnership with Chef Patrick Bertron and Sommelier Éric Goettelmann at a celebrated three-Michelin-starred restaurant in Burgundy, created in memory of the acclaimed chef the restaurant is named for. Launched in the UK in Spring 2010, the range was built specifically to appeal to both chefs and mixologists, pairing unexpected flavour combinations you won't find in a standard fruit liqueur line — apple and ginger among them, alongside other pairings like morello cherry and chocolate, peach and hibiscus, and blackcurrant and gingerbread. The apple and ginger combination itself is a genuinely comforting, versatile pairing — crisp, clean apple character balanced by warming ginger spice, making it equally suited to sipping neat, mixing into an Apple Manhattan or similar autumn cocktail, or drizzling over desserts. As part of the wider Gabriel Boudier house — one of the last independently owned fruit liqueur producers in Burgundy — this liqueur combines over 150 years of production craft with a genuinely creative, chef-driven flavour pairing.
