An orange liqueur with Murcian identity
Triple Sec Porthos is born in Murcia, a region celebrated for the quality of its citrus fruits and its long history of producing aromatic liqueurs. The essence of this spirit comes from the distillation of peels from sweet and bitter oranges, which provide a perfect balance of freshness and dryness. The result is a crystal-clear, bright, and aromatic liqueur with notes of candied orange peel, orange blossom, and a touch of mild spice.

Traditional craftsmanship meets modern technique
The production process of Triple Sec Porthos combines artisanal tradition with technological precision to ensure consistent quality. Orange peels are carefully macerated in neutral alcohol to extract their essential oils. The liqueur is then slowly distilled to achieve a clean, dry, and lasting aroma. This attention to detail is what gives Porthos its balanced character, ideal for both professional and home mixology.
Bottling is carried out under strict quality control to preserve the purity of the product and ensure that every bottle retains its original aromatic profile intact.
