Giffard Triple Sec
About Giffard Triple Sec
Giffard Triple Sec is made with the same care and precision that the Giffard family has employed for five generations, since 1885. Bursting with citrus flavor, Giffard Triple Sec is an essential ingredient for the perfect Margarita. Offered in a one-liter bottle and clocking in at 35% ABV, Giffard Triple Sec captures the perfectly balanced essence of both sweet and bitter orange peel.
