Chambord

Core

Loire Valley / France

ABV16.5%. Very low proof — it's essentially a flavored syrup with alcohol. Account for this in cocktail balance.

Tasting Notes

Black raspberry, blackberry, vanilla, honey, cognac warmth, dark berries, subtle herbs. Sweet and jammy up front with a brief cognac finish. The vanilla rounds everything out — it's what separates Chambord from a simple fruit syrup.

Brand Guide

Single brand: Chambord ($28-35). No tiers — Chambord is Chambord. For a budget substitute, use crème de mûre (blackberry) or generic framboise, but know that you're losing the vanilla-cognac backbone.
