The French Connection is a deep, mellow cocktail created by combining rich cognac with the sweet, nutty flavor of amaretto.
It offers a sophisticated balance of oak-aged depth from the cognac and almond-like smoothness from the amaretto, delivering a warm, lingering finish.
With an alcohol content of around 28β30%, it is fairly strong and traditionally enjoyed slowly over ice in an on-the-rocks glass.
It originated in the United States during the 1970s and was named after the crime film "The French Connection."
Perfect for winding down an evening with a sense of luxury and refinement.
