You could even use it to add a raspberry twist to spritzers and coolers.

An aged Marc de Champagne (kind of like posh French grappa) from boutique producers Jean Goyard: artisan distillers who arrived in Champagne from Burgundy in the early years of the 20th century and whose business remains in family hands as specialist distiller for the world's greatest wine region.

Miclo Marc de Gewurztraminer is a pomace brandy made from the distillate of the one of the noble grape varieties of Alsace. Gilbert Miclo founded the Miclo Distillery in 1965 in Alsace. He had succeeded his father as head of the family company in 1962, but in those days they were only traders of wine, eaux de vie and beers. The decision was taken to produce their own fruit brandies, and to concentrate on only products of the very finest quality.
