Aelred Liqueur 1889 Elixer Coiron Jaune 0.7L 43%

The recipes for the spirits are sacred because they come from the old Cistercian monks who once lived there. The original recipe for 'l'Elixir de Vie', for example, dates back to 1239. Benedictus von Nuraien from the Villeneuve de Berg Abbey created it. Some of the other recipes for the spirits that are still available today also date back to the early days of the monastery and have been meticulously passed down from generation to generation.

Tasting advice for herbal liqueurs of this quality

Take the comparison with tasting a good wine. Here, with wine in your mouth, you suck in some air. In contrast, the complexity of a good herbal liqueur can best be understood when you exhale. The CO2 awakens the taste buds, so to speak, calms them down and the aromatic notes develop much better.

Aelred Liqueur 1889 Elixer Coiron Vert 0,7L 45%
Aelred Liqueur 1889 Elixer Coiron Vert 0.7L 45% Ancient heritage The distillers have a whole arsenal of medicinal and aromatic plants at their disposal for the brand's herbal liqueurs. After production has resumed, it is first necessary to acquire specific knowledge, not only about the craftsmanship. The development of new recipes and the reworking of old ones also requires knowledge about the selection of mixtures, infusions or botanicals and, more generally, about the art of distilling. The fact that the recipes from back then were very sophisticated and were already of the highest quality is evident in the combination of herbs. Up to 55 different plants, including thyme, absinthe or myrtle, are used in a liqueur and harmonize perfectly with each other. Liqueur 1889 Elixer Coiron Vert Father Jean Bessier is the developer of this recipe. In 1889 he set about creating a very complex herbal liqueur that releases unexpected aromas when drunk. For this purpose, various botanicals were either infused and/or macerated. The liqueur is then stored or aged in old oak barrels that were previously used in the production of cognac or armagnac.

Aelred Liqueur 1889 Genepi 0,7L 40%
Aelred Liqueur 1889 Genepi 0.7L 40% Génépi - Spiked rue This plant is found primarily in the Alpine regions of France, Italy, Austria and even Slovenia. It prefers to grow in rocky places or on rubble, preferably at altitudes of 1700-3800 meters. The herbaceous plant is now one of the plants on the Red List of endangered species, but is listed there as 'Least Concern'. Nevertheless, the IUCN recommends controlling the harvest for herbal liqueurs made from this plant. The aromatic plant from the Savoy Alps is used for the Génépi Liqueur 1889 and is harvested there from mid-July to mid-August. Once this has happened, the Génépi strands are macerated in alcohol for around 40 days, which means that the alcohol acts as a solvent to dissolve certain ingredients of the plant. After this process, cane sugar is added to the flavoured alcohol and then filtered. Génépi liqueur is characterised by its fresh, floral aroma and is preferably drunk as a digestif. But Génépi is also a real delight as an aperitif, and especially when well chilled.

Aelred Pastis 1889 Provencal 0,7L 45%
Aelred Pastis 1889 Provencal 0.7L 45% A spirit with tradition After the production, sale and consumption of spirits containing thujone, such as absinthe, were banned at the beginning of the 20th century, farmers from Provence secretly set about developing an alternative. This led to the creation of 'Pastis', which is derived from the French 'pastiche', which in English can be translated as 'imitation'. This Pastis consists of a certain basic ingredient, star anise. Its alcohol content is between 40 and 45% vol. It is important that the spirit can be called Pastis if it has a clearly perceptible aniseed flavour and uses natural extracts from liquorice. Other herbs and plants may also be used, so thyme, cumin and savory are usually found in the ingredients list alongside anise. Other guidelines for the designation as pastis are the glycyrrhizic acid content, which comes from the liquorice root, and the amount of sugar. Recommended consumption Pastis is usually served with ice-cold water. For this, the liquor is diluted in a ratio of 5 to 1 (water/pastis). Pastis is now also used as an ingredient in long drinks, e.g. in combination with bitter lemon or orange juice. In the south of France, and thus in the home of Aelred Pastis 1889 Provencal, another way of serving pastis has become popular. In addition to the ice water mentioned above, you also add a splash of syrup or liqueur.

Aelred liqueur 1889 Creme de Mûre Sauvage (Blackberry) 0,5L 16%
Aelred liqueur 1889 Creme de Mûre Sauvage (blackberry) 0.5L 16% In the footsteps of the old monks They were gifted experts in the world of herbs and plants and only in this way could the products made from plants, sugar and alcohol not only convince with their unmistakable taste, they were even said to have a digestive and invigorating effect. It all began with these plant liqueurs, which have such a long tradition, require masterly expertise that has been passed down from generation to generation and of course the most important factor: time. Today, in addition to the original products, the range also includes others, such as modern liqueurs with a low alcohol content and special aromas, anise liqueurs such as the well-known French pastis, fruit aperitifs and liqueurs. Liqueur or crème? In Aelred's premium segment, we find a range of spirits that have the word 'crème' in their name. What exactly is the difference between this and a normal liqueur? The sugar content of crème is even higher than that of a normal liqueur. This means that the aromas are even more intense. For the Mûre Sauvage, or wild blackberries in English, only wild blackberries are used, as they have a more distinctive taste than traditionally cultivated blackberries.

Aelred Liqueur 1889 Creme D'Ardeche Chestnut 0,5L 16%
Aelred Liqueur 1889 Creme Chataigne D'Ardeche (chestnut) 0.5L 16% Aelred These products under the new name 'Aelred' also come from the already well-known French spirits and liqueur brand Eyguebelle. The A and E are written together, 'Ælred', and are intended to represent the development of the company and the transition from Aiguebelle to Eyguebelle. Once you know that Eyguebelle translates as 'beautiful water', the new brand name also makes sense and is something like the spiritual version, Aelred stands for 'spirit of the source'. Liqueur 1889 Creme Ardeche Chestnut For the Chestnut Liqueur, only chestnuts from the Ardèche are used. It must be clearly mentioned here again that the term 'chestnut' refers to an edible variety. Sweet chestnuts (marrons) or chestnuts are relatives of the 'horse chestnut' that you know from the large parks. These are in fact inedible and some are poisonous. The fruits that are used in the liqueur come from specially grafted trees whose fruits are suitable for consumption. In terms of taste, the Chestnut Liqueur moves between sweet caramel notes and the nutty character of the chestnuts and is incredibly soft on the palate. It is particularly good as an accompaniment to cocktails, but it also shows its nutty aroma in the kitchen, for refining sauces or over vanilla ice cream. In 2018, the Liqueur 1889 Creme Ardeche Chestnut even won the gold medal at the Concours Général Agricole in Paris and the silver medal in 2020.

The distillery is located right in the heart of the Drôme Provencale, perfect conditions for herbal spirits. It all began with the creation of a monastery and the monks who lived there. They set about creating complex recipes for herbal and fruit liqueurs from various herbs and plants. Today, some of the spirits are still produced according to these old original recipes. This is how the legacy of the Cistercian monks can live on. Liqueur 1889 Creme Vineyards Peach Made from Rhône-Alpes vine peaches, the Creme de Pêche de Vigne offers an incredible aromatic quality. Intense aromas and a creamy mouthfeel give the impression of just biting into a freshly picked peach. The liqueur is versatile: in addition to being enjoyed pure on ice or as an addition to cocktails, the peach liqueur also cuts a fine figure in the kitchen, for example with ice cream or as a special ingredient in a salad dressing for a fruity note.

Aelred Liqueur 1889 Crème de Cassis de la Drôme 0,5L 16%
Aelred Liqueur 1889 Crème de Cassis de la Drôme 0.5L 16% Since 1889 – Aelred The monks who lived here at the beginning of the monastery's history developed their own recipes for various spirits. To this day, these are of great importance for production and some of the products on the market are still made according to the monks' recipes. Production also follows a closely guarded process, which preserves the unique character and typical taste. Sometimes up to three different processes are used in one product: maceration, distillation or infusion. Crèmes de Fruits The Crème de Fruits range consists of a total of eight products. All products are based on the same principle: Fruit teas are combined with alcohol and cane sugar to create a fine liqueur with intense fruit notes. You can serve the Crème de Cassis with white wine or, for the sparkling version, with Prosecco.

Le Birlou Liqueur 0,7L 18%
Le Birlou Liqueur 0.7L 18% Homemade liqueur Success stories of spirits or liqueurs often start small, as a person's dream. This is also the case with 'Le Birlou' liqueur. Henri Monier created the liqueur, which consists of a mixture of chestnut liqueur, apple syrup and beer, in his workshop in Veinazès, in the Cantal region, and gave it to friends and relatives. The name of the product is made up of two of these three components of the liqueur: Bir stands for beer (in French bière) and the term for the prickly chestnut shell, 'lou'. In 1998, due to the positive response to his product, Henri Monier decided to acquire a license and sell his liqueur nationwide. Drinking pleasure When tasting, all taste buds are stimulated by the various properties of the components. On the nose, the liqueur delights with intense notes of sweet, juicy apples and the spicy aroma of chestnuts. On the palate, the liqueur shows a very soft side and envelops it. Here, too, the fruity, juicy apple notes are in the foreground, with spicy, nutty chestnut aromas complementing them wonderfully.
