Caffo Solara Triple Grand Orange Liqueur - 750ml

Description

Caffo Solara Triple Grand Orange Liqueur is a rich Italian orange liqueur made with brandy and oranges from Southern Italy. Sweet and bitter orange character, orange oil, candied peel, vanilla, nutmeg, and subtle brûléed fruit give it more depth than a basic triple sec. Bottled at 40% ABV, it works well in Margaritas, Sidecars, and other citrus-driven classic cocktails.

Producer

Fratelli Caffo is a family-owned Italian spirits producer based in Calabria, best known for Vecchio Amaro del Capo. The company’s roots go back to 1915, when Giuseppe Caffo acquired a distillery in Santa Venerina, Sicily, before the family later expanded production in Calabria. Solara reflects that Southern Italian identity through its use of brandy, citrus, and a fuller curaçao-style profile.

Cocktail Suggestions

Caffo Solara Triple Grand Orange Liqueur is a strong fit for a Sidecar with Cognac and fresh lemon juice. Its brandy base connects naturally with the Cognac, while the orange peel, vanilla, and candied citrus notes give the cocktail a rounder finish than a leaner triple sec.

It also works well in a Margarita with tequila or mezcal and fresh lime juice. Solara’s sweet and bitter orange profile adds citrus depth, while its 40% ABV gives the drink enough structure to stay bright, sharp, and balanced.
