Sponsored: Marie Brizard facilitates the transition from standard service to bespoke mixology, providing a cost-effective route to premiumisation through natural ingredients and 270 years of botanical expertise
Founded in 1755 in Bordeaux, Marie Brizard has grown from a small artisanal workshop into a globally trusted partner for hospitality professionals, while maintaining its heritage-led identity. Now part of Marie Brizard Wine & Spirits, the brand offers a balance of craftsmanship, scalability and technical innovation for stakeholders.
Its story is rooted in pioneering female entrepreneurship, a rarity in the 18th-century spirits trade, with its signature Anisette, created from a closely guarded blend of 11 plants and spices, laying the foundation for its botanical expertise.
Today, with a portfolio of more than 50 liqueurs and syrups, Marie Brizard positions itself as a comprehensive flavour partner for the beverage sector, spanning classics like Triple Sec and Curaçao to newer profiles such as yuzu and elderflower, all developed using natural flavourings and strict sourcing standards that align with the growing demand for clean-label ingredients.
Strategic Growth in the UAE Market
Marie Brizard is strategically positioned to leverage regional premiumisation trends. The brand offers distinct advantages in the UAE market:
-
Navigating Regulations: As the region introduces sophisticated sugar regulations and excise duties, Marie Brizard’s highly concentrated syrups allow operators to maintain flavour intensity while managing ingredient costs.
-
The Mocktail Revolution: The UAE’s sophisticated non-alcoholic beverage culture requires more than just fruit juice. Marie Brizard provides the complex botanical building blocks necessary for “adult” non-alcoholic serves that command premium price points.
-
Luxury Alignment: By partnering with five-star hospitality groups and engaging the local bartending community through professional platforms and competitions, the brand has become a staple in the UAE’s world-class F&B sector.
In an industry where efficiency and differentiation are paramount, Marie Brizard offers a reliable quality assurance that allows operators to scale their beverage programmes without sacrificing the guest experience.
