Description: Since the early Middle Ages, the European landscape has been adorned with monastic brew houses and elixir distillers, each affiliated with different religious orders. The Cistercians, Benedictines, and Trappists formed a cohesive network of religious houses, fostering the exchange of ideas and techniques while safeguarding their own closely held secrets. These monastic gardens, revered as spaces for worship and contemplation, also served a practical purpose by providing sustenance and medicinal plants to the monks and their esteemed guests.
Drawing inspiration from ancient monastic texts, Vicario embarked on a meticulous journey, meticulously selecting and blending over 15 aromatic herbs and spices to create a captivating maceration. As an homage to these renowned religious orders, the resulting elixir bears their name.
From the moment it graces the senses, a fragrant bouquet of herbs and spices permeates the air, seamlessly guiding one from the initial aroma to the lingering finish. Warm and inviting, the palate is enveloped in a symphony of flavors, with delightful notes of cinnamon, honey, straw, genepy, tarragon, mint, and clove intertwining harmoniously. This exquisitely rounded and exotic liqueur proves to be an exceptional digestive, leaving a lasting impression.
With an alcohol by volume (ABV) of 35%, this remarkable elixir encapsulates the essence of monastic traditions, inviting you to savor its unique character and embark on a journey of indulgence.
