Menthe Verte Spearmint Liqueur

France ➜ Isère 20.0% ABV

20.0% ABV

Distillerie Meunier captures the full character of spearmint through both distillation and infusion, creating a depth of aroma and flavor well beyond the pressing of mint leaves. This liqueur highlights the green and earthy character of spearmint which is often used in cocktails, rather than the peppermint typical to creme de menthe. Menthe Verte works anywhere a cocktail calls for simple syrup and mint leaves. It shines in lemonade, iced teas, juleps, and mojitos, and pairs beautifully with melon or cucumber. Pour on strawberries (instead of adding spearmint leaves and sugar) with cream for a decadent dessert.

Meunier Cacao Noir Liqueur

France ➜ Isère 30.0% ABV

30.0% ABV

NEW! Meunier’s distillery rests in the valley that has defined French chocolate production for centuries. By both distilling and infusing cacao nibs, Meunier creates a depth of aroma and flavor well beyond the common crème de cacao. The cacao and botanicals are extracted in-house, with no added flavorings. This liqueur highlights the stonefruit and spice notes of great dark chocolate, with a drier profile and concentrated cacao character that adds both flavor and texture, making it particularly versatile in cocktails. It marries beautifully with whiskey, brandy, génépy, coffee, and ice cream.
