Grand Marnier Cordon Jaune was the original Marnier orange liqueur. Produced with neutral grain spirit, it was essentially a Triple Sec or Curaçao. Louis-Alexandre Marnier-Lapostolle, the creator of Grand Marnier, later replaced the base spirit with Cognac, and thus was born the more famous Cordon Rouge. Sadly, Gruppo Campari ceased production of Cordon Jaune on 1 January, 2017, after having acquired the Marnier portfolio.
