Sparkling Mead,
L'Arbre aux Abeilles
L'Arbre aux Abeilles' sparkling dry mead is made with the same honey as the still mead and has the same aromatic characteristics with a festive note: persistence, floral, apple, and citrus notes, enhanced by a subtle acidity. The fine bubbles are obtained using the traditional method of ancient Gaillac wines, with the residual must re-fermented inside the bottle. Open on festive occasions, as an aperitif, or even with a meal.
Gentiane
"Auvergne is more of a secret than a province; we never seek it as much as when we've already found it." This beautiful phrase by Alexandre Vialatte expresses, in a way, the research of the creators of La Jeannette. These pure Auvergnats had the wonderful idea of reviving gentian, this traditional Auvergne liqueur, which is mainly drunk as an aperitif and blends well with blackcurrant liqueur. You know it: it has lit up many a bar counter with its bright yellow flash, tinged slightly with green, in the clinking of ice cubes. You may have found it, from one brand to another, a little too sweet. It is precisely on its flavor that the creators of La Jeannette have worked.
Many traditional liqueurs have been dusted off in recent years. Generally, this dusting consists of a reduction in sugar content, accompanied by an intensification of flavors and a firm intention to focus on wild, organic, and natural ingredients. For La Jeannette, it's a success. The products are 100% Auvergne: first, fresh gentian roots harvested on the slopes of the Auvergne volcanoes. This is the main element. Next, lemon verbena, also known to Auvergne liqueur makers, an infusion of vine peaches, and a touch of peppermint.
One small sip and you immediately understand that this is no longer Grandpa's gentian, even if it's a grandmother laughing at you on the label. You first perceive that no excess sugar hides the freshness of the ingredients. Because the attack is fresh: the peppermint overlaps the continuous bitter note of the gentian. It's very balanced and very successful. In the mid-palate, the verbena asserts itself and adds to the overall sensation of freshness. It's a beautiful bitterness, the flavor that cures all and lifts the spirits. Needless to say, any cocktail with a hint of bitterness is allowed (negroni, americano, spritz, etc.), but we find it so delicious that we enjoy it on its own over ice, or with one of our favorite tonics, Hysope.
What's more, Jeannette is involved: she's working to save wild gentian. During an Ulule campaign, one euro per bottle sold was donated to an Auvergne association dedicated to preserving this precious root, promoting its replanting in its natural environment. If our aperitif can also be eco-friendly, who's going to complain?
Chestnut Mead,
L'Arbre aux Abeilles' chestnut mead is a unique semi-dry wine. On the palate, it's a dialogue between the sweetness and bitterness characteristic of chestnut honey: woody, forest, and caramelized notes. Serve it as an aperitif or with desserts, game, pâtés, foie gras, and other charcuterie.
Génépi Le Pompon (50 cl)
Génépi Le Pompon
This attractive bottle contains a modernized génépi liqueur. Moderately sweet, yet smooth and powerful, it contains the delicate and complex aromas of this famous little mountain plant. We recommend keeping it refrigerated. Enjoy it on its own, in a small glass, or in a cocktail. Johan and Alexis, its creators, have a cocktail recipe for you, the cloudy pompon: mix 4 cl of génépi Le Pompon, 8 cl of cloudy apple juice, and serve over ice with a basil leaf.
Punch Coco 20° - 100cl
This coconut punch is a marvel, encapsulating the quintessence of the coconut trees that line the shores of Guadeloupe. This punch is made with the utmost respect for Guadeloupean traditions. Each nut is carefully selected, cracked, grated, and then blended with a decoction of Longueteau 50° rum infused with natural vanilla. The whole thing macerates for several weeks. The profile of this punch is very slightly sweet, marked by fresh coconut and subtle notes of fresh, toasted almonds.

The Longueteau distillery, located in Capesterre-Belle-Eau (Guadeloupe), is the oldest distillery on the island still in operation. It has the distinction of being entirely self-sufficient in sugar cane production, which it uses to obtain its magnificent terroir agricultural rums. Agricultural rum, we should point out, is made from pure sugar cane juice, unlike many other Caribbean rums, which are produced from cane molasses. It is a specialty of the French West Indies. The estate is currently in the hands of François Longueteau, a distiller since 1979. Production is, as it was originally, artisanal and traditional, but the sugar cane terroirs are developed using plot-by-plot methods - this is the great originality of Longueteau, the first distillery on the island to have adopted this approach. Two varieties of sugar cane, blue cane and red cane, are cultivated, as well as fruits from the Guadeloupean terroir. Longueteau rums and the resulting preparations (punches, shrubbs, etc.) are fine, aromatic, deep and fragrant.
Planteur's Punch 16° - 100cl
In the hands of Longueteau, the classic planter's punch recipe is bound to be skillfully revisited. Everything is made from local ingredients: in the gardens of the Longueteau estate, not far from the blue and red sugarcane fields, a tropical fruit orchard provides the raw material for punches, liqueurs, and other recipes. Each fruit—guava, grenadine, orange, passion fruit, pineapple—is carefully picked and selected to macerate for several weeks, with cinnamon sticks, in Longueteau 50° agricultural rum. Longueteau puts its expertise of more than twenty years into the creation and production of this homemade punch. The profile of this punch is round, fruity, sunny and delicious.

Punch Maracuja 25° - 100cl
Longueteau Distillery
This punch is made with Longueteau rum and the passion fruit variety called maracuja: larger than the usual size, heavy, juicy, and very fragrant. The fruit is grown on the property: of the 100 hectares of land on the estate, 70 are dedicated to growing sugarcane and the remaining 30 to tropical fruits typical of the Caribbean region. This is where the fresh passion fruits used to flavor this punch come from. Harvested in the morning, they leave for the distillery in the afternoon to be macerated for several weeks in Longueteau 50 agricultural rum. This know-how corresponds to more than twenty years of experience in the creation and production of homemade punches at Longueteau: an authentic and gourmet recipe, ideal for an aperitif.

Pommeau "Premium"
Domaine de la Flaguerie
The Pommeau Premium from Domaine de la Flaguerie seduces with its brilliant mahogany color and aromatic elegance. Aged for two years, it offers a suave nose blending candied notes of gingerbread, prune, and cooked fruit. On the palate, its mellow roundness reveals complex and balanced flavors.
As an aperitif, with mature cheeses, or with dessert, this organic Pommeau stands out for its finesse and deliciousness. Best enjoyed between 8 and 10°C.
Pastis du Zeppelin 44.8° - 70cl
We first admire the magnificent label, and then we discover the bouquet. The nose of this certified organic pastis is fresh and aniseed, the palate is very fresh and delicately spiced. But pastis in Brittany? Of course. Besides, if you know how to make absinthe, you know how to make pastis, the latter being one of the spirits that replaced absinthe after it was banned in 1915. Pastis, since then, has become a product of Provence and especially Marseille, but nothing prevents the existence of a Breton pastis. This one gets its taste from a combination of thirteen distilled plants, always with a dominance of green anise and complex, spicy and herbaceous notes: fennel, star anise, angelica root, coriander, cinnamon, orange, iris, licorice, nutmeg, clove. The whole thing is very fresh, as befits a pastis. All that remains is to dilute it with fresh water.

The Awen Nature distillery is a factory of magic potions: beverages with a strong Celtic content, organic liqueurs with a strong touch of poetry. This Breton distillery, located in Ille-et-Vilaine and run by Julien Fanny, initially devoted itself to absinthe, a liqueur that Julien helped to rehabilitate. It's not "the liqueur that makes you crazy," he says: "we were already crazy before." » He strives—successfully—to recreate the taste of yesteryear, that of absinthes that were once given to children on a sugar cube as a dewormer. “You need a touch of madness to be a distiller today,” says Julien. In addition to absinthe, Julien distills a wide range of spirits and liqueurs: gins, vodkas, botanical rums, Swedish elixir, concoctions inspired by role-playing games… All made from plants, respecting the environment, without preservatives or artificial flavors. An ode to plants that the korrigans must sip in secret, at night, on the moors.
Vervain by Vincent Spiritueux
The Granier liqueur house offers its first Vervain liqueur, the one that launched the house's beginnings. Entirely organic, artisanal, and sourced locally, it is Vincent's Vervain, Vincent Granier's, who lovingly created its recipe.
The Plant
Lemon verbena (Aloysia citriodora) is a favorite in cottage gardens. A member of the Verbenaceae family, it is cultivated for its fragrant leaves, with a slight hint of lemon peel. It is tonic, calming, fever-reducing, antispasmodic, and digestive. The one infused for this liqueur was grown organically and harvested by hand in the Alps.
Production
To the Vervain are added organic lemon zest (from Menton), organic coriander seeds and lemongrass grown biodynamically in Egypt (the closest and most eco-friendly place to find 100% natural lemongrass). The plants and spices are infused in the natural water of the Boubioz spring, near Lake Annecy, and the alcohol is made from 100% organic wheat. The organic sugar is produced in the Palatine Forest.
Tasting
This organic and artisanal Vervain is sweet and caressing, very fresh, and is not heavy in alcohol or sugar. Easy to drink, it can be enjoyed as an aperitif, in a shot, in mixology and as a digestif. We love pairing it with fine charcuterie, for example terrines or hams from the Ferme de Mayrinhac.
Learn more about Granier liqueurs
The Granier liqueur factory — two brothers, Vincent and Stéphane Granier — produces artisanal liqueurs from the Haute-Savoie region. Flavor, smoothness, and balance are their great qualities, resulting from a meticulous and measured infusion technique to minimize extraction.
Wild or organically grown
Plants grown organically, or picked in the mountains surrounding Annecy, are obtained through short supply chains and for this reason reflect the flora of the steep meadows or gardens of Haute-Savoie. Everything is organic and without additives, from the initial infusion to bottling.
Intact flavors
During the tasting, we were amazed by the Granier liqueurs, one after the other. Never have such fresh plant flavors been restored to us by liqueurs. We have the sensation of tasting the plant itself, infused in all its singularity, supported by just the right amount of organic sugar (that is to say, little) produced in the Palatine Forest and just the right amount of alcohol. An organic beer alcohol that allows the plant to convey its message without interference. Not only is it delicious, but it's also an excellent digestif. Vervain, genepi, gentian, mint, or meadowsweet—we guarantee you'll have a great time.
Génépi Spirits
Liqueurs Granier
Génépi is "the" Savoyard liqueur; it doesn't get more regional than this. It's entirely organic and artisanal, made by the Granier brothers in the Annecy region and sourced locally.
The Plant
The name "génépi" refers to a family of small alpine wormwoods of the genus Artemisia that are harvested between 2,500 and 3,500 meters above sea level. These highly aromatic and medicinal plants (fighting colds, viral illnesses and digestive disorders) are the main ingredient of the most emblematic liqueur of Haute-Savoie.
Production
Génépi is harvested in the Alps and dried before infusion in 96% organic wheat alcohol, before blending with an organic sugar syrup made by a landowner harvesting in the Palatine Forest. The water comes from the Boubioz spring, near Lake Annecy. No additives are added during production. The liqueur, aged in rum barrels, includes coriander seeds and lemon zest. Unlimited aging potential.
Tasting
Floral, aromatic and of great purity, this liqueur flies the flag of Alpine génépi high. The balsamic note of génépi initially manifests itself with great amplitude and persists in the mouth, supported by light spices (coriander and lemon). A success, to be associated with raw fish or smoked fish of all kinds and of course smoked salmon. The best pairing will be with a raclette.

Vervain by Stephane Spirits
After Vincent Granier created his vervain, his brother Stéphane wanted to make his own version: here it is. Entirely organic and artisanal, sourced locally, it's the big brother's vervain. Its production is different, as is its taste.
The Plant
Lemon verbena (Aloysia citriodora) is a favorite in cottage gardens. A member of the Verbenaceae family, it is cultivated for its fragrant leaves, with a slight hint of lemon peel. It is tonic, calming, fever-reducing, antispasmodic, and digestive. The one infused for this liqueur was grown organically and harvested by hand in the Alps.
Production
Stéphane's initial recipe is identical to that of Vincent's Vervain (link), but it is aged for six months in vats to "settle," then it is passed through a barrel of arranged rum, which gives it a different, more sophisticated taste and olfactory envelope. Lemon zest from Menton, biodynamic Egyptian lemongrass, and organic coriander seeds are also present.
Tasting
The reddish-brown color is more intense and deeper, the nose more vanilla and caramelized due to the aging in wood. More powerful on the palate too: roasted aromas of old rum coat those of the plants. To be enjoyed as an aperitif over ice, as a digestif, as a long drink and to be paired with high-end hams: Ibérico de bellota from Don Bardem, the Gascon from Porc Noir de Bigorre, or the delicious beef hams from Maison Aitana. But if you want to pair it with chocolate, that works very well too!
To the vervain are added organic lemon zest (from Menton), organic coriander seeds and lemongrass grown biodynamically in Egypt (the closest and most eco-friendly place to find 100% natural lemongrass). The plants and spices are infused in natural water from the Boubioz spring, near Lake Annecy, and the alcohol is made from 100% organic wheat. Organic sugar is produced in the Palatine Forest.

Gentian Spirits
Granier Gentian is an organic and artisanal liqueur, sourced locally and produced by the Granier brothers near Annecy, in Haute-Savoie. It is part of a long tradition of wild gentian liqueur from the French mountains (Massif Central and the Alps), whose harvest is subject to rigorous controls to ensure the plant regenerates normally.
The Plant
Yellow gentian (Gentiana lutea) is a tall mountain plant whose root, extracted by specialized gatherers, the "gentianaires," is used in herbalism and liqueur making. Difficult to extract, it was nicknamed "the poor man's quinquina" because of its beneficial and digestive bitter ingredients. The gentian used for this liqueur comes from a sustainable development sector, controlled by the Gentiana Lutea association, which manages the exploitation of this wild plant.
Production
The gentian root is infused in 96% organic wheat alcohol, before blending with an organic sugar syrup made by a landowner harvesting in the Palatine Forest. The water comes from the Boubioz spring, near Lake Annecy. No additives are added during production. The liqueur, aged in rum barrels, includes coriander seeds and lemon zest. Unlimited aging potential.
Tasting
This gentian has everything going for it, starting with its bitterness. This is indeed the desired flavor in this liqueur, and the Granier brothers know how to let it express itself with frankness and simplicity in order to preserve the strong identity of this noble plant. A few drops on a sugar cube, or a small glass as an aperitif, or as a digestif (with or without ice). Sovereign in case of stomach problems, tones the liver. Despite its bitterness, it can be paired with various dishes, especially as an aperitif. Try it with a ham and butter sandwich! It goes well with charcuterie, cured meats, dry sausages for example. Idea: pour a few drops into your coffee! Or in the batter of a chocolate cake.

Pastis 2022 Spirits
Garagai
Garagaï is an organic and artisanal pastis from the Provençal region, produced by Maixent Dubois. All the plants that compose it were either picked in the Sainte-Victoire mountain region, in the Aix region in the spring of 2022, or grown organically at the distillery. It's a distinctive and delicious pastis that will be a welcome change from industrial versions.
Production
The plants, picked at the time of flowering, are macerated while still fresh. The maceration time depends on each plant, depending on how the macerates are tasted. The macerates are then filtered and the remaining plants distilled. The blend is carried out over about twenty macerations, after which the mixture rests to marry the aromas and is filtered before bottling. The sweetening is very light, at a rate of 6 g of Butinarello lavender honey per liter of pastis. Here is the composition: star anise, licorice, wild thyme, lemon thyme, rosemary, savory, fennel, tarragon, lemon balm, lemon basil, Marseille basil, absinthe, mugwort, bay leaf, peppermint, spearmint, dill, coriander, green anise, oregano, hyssop, agastache.
Tasting
You can immediately taste the difference, this Garagaï pastis has nothing to do with the mass-market versions: no overly sweet notes; the blend is subtle, the plants form a harmonious bouquet. The aging potential is unlimited, but it is recommended to drink an opened bottle within two months to preserve all its aromatic qualities. What do you serve this pastis with? Peanuts. But also small antipasti from Olio di Serra, Mediterranean starters, tapas, Spanish canned fish, cured meats, the bottarga…
Learn more about the Garagaï distillery
Garagaï is the name of a chasm (or rather two chasms, the large and small Garagaï) located at the top of the Sainte-Victoire mountain. It follows that the products of the Garagaï distillery display a strong Provençal identity. The distillery was born in 2019, created by Maixent Dubois, a local boy who went from working in winemaking to working with spirits.
A desire for pastis
Maixent has long dreamed of making pastis. He will interpret the recipe with love and finesse, growing his organic plants on site or having them picked in the Aix region, around the Sainte-Victoire mountain. The result is a first distinctive and emblematic product, Garagaï pastis, released in 2020. It is made using entirely artisanal methods and organic products, and distilled in a Charentais-style still. Other pastis will follow, as well as syrups made from Mediterranean plants.
The aperitif of the sun
Obtained using various techniques (hot infusion, cold maceration, bain-marie distillation), Garagaï pastis are subtle, complex, and aromatic thanks to the meticulous work of blending the distillates. This will be a change from industrial pastis; it's time to rediscover this aperitif liqueur that so beautifully evokes summer and sunshine.
