In a comparative taste test with Grand Marnier I found this slightly sweet, though not overly sweet or unpleasant. I found the orange notes similar to GM; it is quite obvious when sipping that it’s an Orange liqueur, but the orange notes are balanced and pleasant. The color is much lighter than GM. Good for sipping, great for mixing at this price point (I got this instead of a curaçao because I was in a pinch and none of my Local stores had any curaçao’s in stock.
