Tasting Notes

D.O.M. Bénédictine is a French herbal liqueur created in the 19th century, crafted from a secret recipe of 27 herbs and spices. The nose is rich and aromatic, with notes of honey, saffron, citrus peel, and warm spice. On the palate, it is smooth and complex, offering layers of honeyed sweetness, citrus, and dried fruit balanced by cloves, nutmeg, and subtle herbal tones. The texture is velvety, leading into a long, warming finish of honey, spice, and lingering botanicals.

Food Pairings

As a starter, enjoy it with charcuterie, spiced nuts, or foie gras. For a main course, it complements roast duck, glazed ham, or pork tenderloin with herbs. In the cheese course, creamy brie, Roquefort, or aged gouda highlight its spiced sweetness. For dessert, it pairs beautifully with crème brûlée, spiced apple tart, or dark chocolate truffles.
