Ah..Grand Marnier! A wonderfully divine Orange Cognac. I love this stuff. You can put it on anything, (I have yet to try it on my Wheaties though), but I was thinking today that I know really nothing about it. So I set out on a mission and this is what I got.

• Began production in 1880
• The distillery is located in Neauphle-le-Chateau, France
