Menthe Pastille - Spirit of Art - 24%
\n
The Giffard Distillery was founded in 1885 by Émile Giffard, a renowned pharmacist in Angers. From the very beginning, he embarked on innovative research on various beverages and created a unique liqueur based on mint, known for its refreshing and digestive virtues: the famous Menthe-Pastille. Four generations later, this emblematic family business continues to passionately uphold its expertise. Today, the distillery employs 87 skilled collaborators and exports its exceptional products to more than 10 countries across four continents, promoting the art of French distillation internationally.

The high-quality ingredients used for production mostly come from the Angers region, with a rigorous selection of fruits and aromatic plants, sometimes imported to ensure the richness and diversity of the sought-after flavors. Maceration is carried out according to a strict traditional process that preserves the authenticity and natural aromas of the fruits and plants. To extract these precious essences, the fruits are macerated in alcohol for a period ranging from 48 hours to 3 months, depending on the optimal development of flavors. This concentrated infusion forms the essential base of the liqueur-making process. Every step, from blending to filtration and quality control, is performed with rigorous care. Before bottling, each batch is carefully tasted to ensure impeccable taste quality and a unique sensory experience.
