Distillerie Meunier
For over 200 years, the house of Charles Meunier has been unique in having Génépy as its principal focus, with its own fields at 1800m in the Savoie. In 1809, Charles Meunier, a botany enthusiast and merchant of colonial products, embarked on a new venture by partnering with Camille Teissere, a maker of Ratafias and liqueurs in Grenoble. Together, they perfected a unique distillate of alpine plants and génépy, leading to the creation of the first Génépy des Alpes. At Meunier, family heritage is deeply cherished, ensuring the preservation of centuries-old craftsmanship through meticulous processes from field to bottle. Since 2021, the distillery has been led by Edouard and Arthur Modelski, the third generation to uphold the tradition and exceptional quality of Meunier.
