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.

Dolin Genepi Likör 1821 Brin 0,7L 40%

Dolin Genepi Liqueur 1821 Brin 0.7L 40% 1821 This year is also the birth year of the vermouth liqueur. Joseph Chavasse developed a new recipe in this year, which was based on a vermouth liqueur from the neighboring city of Turin. The recipe, which has remained unchanged for 200 years, is now experiencing a comeback! Génépi is a very popular herbal liqueur, particularly in the French and Italian Alps. It is based on plants belonging to the genus Artemisia. The best known of these are wormwood or mugwort. In the most distant sense, Dolin Génépi is also seen as a vermouth liqueur or even as absinthe. However, there is a clear difference to absinthe: Génépi is NOT distilled, the herbs are simply macerated in alcohol and then seasoned with sugar. Alpine wormwood liqueur - Liqueur 1821 Brin In the glass it has a wonderfully delicate green color with golden reflections. A strong aroma with notes of mugwort reaches the nose when you open the bottle. On the palate, the Génépi Liqueur 1821 Brin is full of finesse and very well balanced. You should always keep a Génépi well chilled in the freezer so that you can enjoy it at any time. A little insider tip: For a special kind of dessert, simply pour some of the liqueur over vanilla, mint or chocolate ice cream and enjoy!

Aelred Liqueur 1889 Elixer Coiron Jaune 0,7L 43%

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 Creme Chataigne D'Ardeche (Kastanie) 0,5L 16%

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.

Dolin Coeur de Genepi Liqueur 0,5L 50%

Dolin Coeur de Genepi Liqueur 0.5L 50% Original recipe unchanged for 200 years Genepi is translated into German as a name for various plant species, but is often also just used as a name for mugwort, or is also often used as a name for a traditional Alpine liqueur. A specially composed Alpine herb mixture is used for the Dolin Coeur de Genepi liqueur. This is then macerated for several weeks in the base alcohol and is then NOT distilled, unlike absinthe and the like. The Alpine liqueur is particularly popular and well-known in the French and Italian Alps. The Dolin Genepi comes from the French part of the Alps. The aroma is a wonderful combination of floral and herbaceous notes combined in a creamy liqueur. To intensify the taste even further, you will find a branch of the spiked rue, which is very well known in the Alps, in the bottle. To enjoy the full aroma, you should serve the Genepi liqueur on ice. This way you can discover the herbal aromas paired with subtle vanilla and the association of cut grass.
