COINTREAU Liqueur

"NO THANK YOU BOY"

LA MARQUE MONDIALE

How many times at the end of a perfectly cheery dinner is this remark made-

in Hongkong, when the two or three uninteresting liqueurs are handed round? Strangely enough, so many hosts neglect this final touch to an otherwise 'excellent repast.

And yet there are several delightfully subtle liqueurs which will not only be greatly appreciated, but will capture the imagination of your guests and create an atmosphere of soothing contentment,

Of course, the wonderfully subtle spirits of COINTREAU are universally known.

The secret charms of SEVE: SAINTONGE; the delicacy of MAJESTIC, and of those exquisite "LIQUEURS DE FRAISES" and "LIQUEURS DE FRAMBOISES" embodying the soul of French strawberries and raspberries, are the joy of opicures.

Now available at Tho. French Store, The Wing On Company, The Kwon Tye Loong Store, The Empresa Store (Nathan Road), The Hung Cheong Store (Nathan Road) and the Tal Woo Store (Hankow Road, Kowloon).
