Liqueur de plantes
Maison Fontbonne, the sole producer, distills 26 plants, roots and spices in Dijon
to create this unique liqueur whose production
process has remained a secret since 1874.
THE REBIRTH OF A UNIQUE RECIPE.
Fontbonne Herbal Liqueur has been reawaken to revive the history of our ancestral house.
In his twilight years, Jean Fontbonne crafted his final masterpiece – FONTBONNE Verte. The blend of its 26 ingredients was meant to “dance on the palate and linger as a cherished memory”.
This testament to Fontbonne’s dedication to botanical distillation remained a secret recipe, passed to his son, René Louis Fontbonne, but was regrettably lost in time, forgotten amidst the sale of the company in 1909.
