Q: What  is the best way to enjoy Combier Liqueur d'Orange?
A: Combier Liqueur d'Orange is a triple sec (before the name was bastardized). Therefore, it can be poured in the hundreds of cocktails that call for triple sec with the most popular being Margaritas, Cosmopolitans, SideCars, and Long Island Iced Teas. As well, women in the South of France drink Combier on the rocks with a slice of orange.
Q: What's the difference between Combier Liqueur d'Orange and ordinary triple sec?
 A: Combier Liqueur d'Orange is the "original" formula for triple sec and was first created in 1834 by Jean-Baptiste Combier and his wife in Saumur, France. The most significant differences between the copycats and Combier Liqueur d'Orange are that Combier uses all natural ingredients, it's 80 proof (40% alcohol by volume) and it's triple distilled. Ordinary triple sec has lower alcohol content, takes shortcuts in the production process, uses inferior ingredients and adds synthetic flavoring.
Q: What's this stuff made of anyway?
 A: Combier Liqueur d'Orange is created using 100% fresh sun-dried orange peels from the French West Indies, sugar beets from Normandy, pure alcohol from Paris, and all-natural ingredients from the surrounding Loire Valley.
Q: Is Combier Liqueur d'Orange all-natural?
 A: Oh yeah.
Q: Is it true that Combier Liqueur d'Orange on the rocks was Napolean's favorite drink?
 A: While Napoleon would have no doubt loved Combier Liqueur d'Orange, Combier started producing its famed Liqueur d'Orange in 1834. Napoleon died in 1821.
Q: Why is there a horse in Combier's logo?
 A: Combier liqueurs are produced, bottled and shipped in a quaint French village called Saumur in France's historic Loire Valley, the 18th century birthplace of France's world-reknowned Cavalry Academy. The Academy still exists to this day, and many argue still produces some of finest equestrian riders in the world.
