From the Principality
to your cabinet
Long before tourism, yachts and the Grand Prix, agriculture was the mainstay of the Monegasque economy. Even today, 600 bitter orange trees line the streets of the Principality. Once a year, the sun-kissed citrus fruits are hand-picked and brought to our atelier, where their zest is infused with the finest alcohol to create the authentic taste of L’Orangerie.
Drinking L’Orangerie is like enjoying a real piece of Monaco in a glass.

Our simple, but secret, recipe
The harvest of the bitter orange crop takes place in Monaco between January and February each year. We wait patiently for the fruit to mature and ripen to its optimum state before gathering and starting the transformation to a fragrant, zesty and bursting with flavour liqueur.
Our secret is simple; we use the best fruit available, we wash and peel with great care, and we macerate slowly and diligently to extract all of the amazing flavour from the fruits. Once the magic has happened, the liqueur goes through low-temperature filtration to remove any excess oils and is finally ready to be bottled and enjoyed.
Enjoy a sip of Monaco
From its sun-like colour to the natural citrus flavour, everything in L’Orangerie tells a story of the Principality of Monaco. Close your eyes, take a sip and feel the breeze of the Riviera, wherever you are.
How to enjoy L’Orangerie
L’Orangerie is excellent when enjoyed chilled on its own, or in a cocktail. Experience the unique taste of the Monaco Spritz, the signature drink of the Principality, or indulge yourself with one of the cocktails designed by the best mixologists of Monaco.
