Distilled and aged in a flamboyant palace, built in Fécamp in tribute to this unique liqueur, Bénédictine is a subtle alchemy of 27 different plants and spices. Some of the herbs and spices have been used since the biblical times and many still have a place in folk remedies. The origin of these plants is like a journey around the world: from Greece to Africa, to Indonesia, India and so much more. Sight: Rich, coppery with golden highlights. Nose: Herbal and spicy fragrance. Citrus hints of tangerine zest with subtle notes of pine. Taste: A silky and rich palate with light honey and citrus notes with soft almonds.
