Some facts about the French Connection

• The French Connection is part of International Bartender Association’s IBA official cocktails list.

• Legend says it was invented in the 70s, named after the 1971 movie of the same name with Gene Hackman.

• A proper French Connection requires a very aromatic cognac and a dry amaretto, in order to guarantee a good balance of sweet and roasted notes.

How did we twist
the recipe ?

CAMUS Ile de Ré Fine Island :

An island Cognac with a bold personality, naturally iodine-rich, with a lively dry and subtly oaked palate

AMARETTO Adriatico : Crafted with handpicked Italian almonds, carefully roasted and distilled

The secret

Amaretto Adriatico’s recipe includes a pinch of sea salt which matches perfectly with the fresh, marine notes of CAMUS Ile de Ré Fine Island
