Hi

Xante (Xanté Original Poire au Cognac) is a very beatyful liquer imported by 
the Swedish government-owned distrubutor-manufacturer "Vin & Sprit".
XANTÉ was composed by Richard Heinrich, masterblender of Maison Heinrich 
Liquoristerie Artisanale. It is a young, fresh cognac från Distillerie des 
Moisans in Sireul, Cognac, blended with extract from pears from the Liége.

Is is also a very versatile product when mixed in drinks, I prefer it straight 
with coffee or as a coffedrink mixed with coffee and a layer of cream on top.

As a bartender I have also used it in certain after-dinner cocktails. But the 
most popular drink in Sweden with Xante is "Lennart"...1 part Xante, some 
roses limejuice and fill upp with Ginger Ale, in a highballglass, garnish with 
lime....terrific!

Try also to contact Vin & Sprit for more information in English.
