A French herbal liqueur distilled in Dijon from 26 plants, roots and spices, bottled at 45% ABV in a 700 ml bottle. It revives the FONTBONNE Verte recipe created by Jean Fontbonne in 1874, lost when the company sold in 1909 and now resurrected. Botanicals include tarragon, fennel, pine bud, liquorice, rosemary, cardamom, lavender, elderflower, gentian, basil, cinnamon, thyme, chamomile, sage, juniper, angelica and black tea. Per Difford's Guide, the nose is pungent and herbal, with turmeric, pine, thyme, mint, liquorice and gentian. The palate is assertively herbal with black pepper spice, with gentian, mint, sage and basil standing out amid complex flavours. The aftertaste is cracked black pepper and minty herbal freshness, cleansing and long.
