Description
PREPARATION
DOM Bénédictine is made from 27 herbs and spices carefully sourced from around the world and hand-selected by the master herbalist. The production process takes place at Le Palais Bénédictine, located in the heart of Fécamp, where its secrets have been passed down from generation to generation for over 500 years using the original copper stills. From traditional roots, including angelica root, famous for its healing properties, to saffron, the world's most expensive spice, each ingredient is carefully chosen to create the harmonious balance of the elixir. Essential to the production process is the mixture of fine honey and saffron, to give a rich and balanced texture. The secret alchemy of the ingredients imparts a unique flavor and fragrance to the liquid. For this reason, only a select number of the dried plants used in the recipe can be revealed. Once distilled, the spirit ages for 8 months in oak barrels made from the finest wood before being blended with honey and saffron. This new blend is then heated before resting for the final 4 months in an oak tank before being filtered and bottled.
