Menthe-Pastille 24 ° - Giffard - 1L
Emile Giffard is a pharmacist in Angers, in the Loire Valley, but not a pharmacist like the others. Inventor, curious and fine gourmet, he carries out research on the digestive and refreshing virtues of mint. He thus developed a pure, transparent, refined white mint liqueur, which he tested with the customers of the Grand Hotel, his neighbor, to relieve them of the heat. The success is immediate. Emile then transformed his pharmacy into a distillery and baptized his liqueur Menthe-Pastille, in reference to the mint pastilles very fashionable at that time.
