Giffard Orgeat Syrup (Non Alcoholic) - 1 Litre Bottle
Introduction
Giffard Orgeat Syrup is a non alcoholic product produced in Angers, France. The company was founded in 1885 by Emile Giffard, a pharmacist who established the distillery following the success of his Menthe Pastille liqueur. Today, Giffard remains an independent, family owned business managed by the fifth generation.
Spirit Description
This almond syrup presents a milky, off white appearance similar to the colour of coconut cream. The aromatic profile is rich and gourmet, featuring intense scents of bitter almond, frangipane, and crushed nuts. On the palate, it delivers a smooth and sweet flavour of orgeat with a complex, fruity freshness and a subtle hint of orange blossom. The body is velvety and sweet, leading to a long finish that emphasizes traditional confectionary notes. This product contains 0% alcohol by volume.
Food Pairing
The nutty and sweet structure of this syrup makes it a versatile companion for various desserts and snacks. It pairs exceptionally well with fruit based sweets, such as peach cobbler or grilled stone fruits like plums and apricots. For a savoury contrast, it can be served alongside a charcuterie board featuring salty cheeses and toasted hazelnuts. It also complements spicy Asian inspired dishes, such as poke bowls or shrimp ceviche, by providing a creamy sweetness that balances the heat.
Distinctive Features
Giffard Orgeat Syrup is distinguished by its use of 100% pure sugar derived from French beets and natural almond flavouring. It is crafted without artificial preservatives and undergoes flash pasteurization to ensure the perfect preservation of its aromatic complexity. This syrup is suitable for a variety of dietary preferences as it is vegan, gluten free, and contains no fat. Its high brix level of 61.4% ensures a consistent and intense flavour profile for mixing.
Serving Suggestions
As an essential ingredient in tiki culture, this syrup is fundamental for creating a non alcoholic 'Mai Tai' or a 'Japanese Mocktail'. It can be enjoyed simply by diluting it with soda water and a squeeze of fresh lime for a refreshing 'Orgeat Fizz'. In hot beverage applications, it serves as an excellent sweetener for espresso, lattes, and teas, adding a rich frangipane depth. It also performs well in creamy mocktails, such as a coffee based 'A Wilhelm Cream'.
