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.
