NVLush, fragrant, and richly coloured, Giffard Fruits de Bois is a beautifully balanced berry liqueur that captures the essence of ripe summer fruit. Crafted by Giffard & Cie, masters of fine liqueurs since 1885, it is produced by slowly macerating a selection of wild berries in neutral spirit before blending with pure cane sugar.
The result is a luxurious liqueur bursting with natural berry sweetness, tangy freshness, and subtle herbal depth — perfect for creative cocktails, desserts, or refined aperitif serves.
Founded in Angers, France, Giffard & Cie has been producing artisanal liqueurs and syrups for over 135 years. The family-owned distillery remains dedicated to traditional fruit maceration and authentic flavour extraction, combining innovation with heritage.
Fruits de Bois epitomises this philosophy — showcasing the purity of French fruit and Giffard’s mastery of blending. The result is a liqueur of true craftsmanship: vibrant, balanced, and naturally expressive.
