Tasting Notes:
Salers is proud of being the only one of the three great gentian liqueur brands to not have modified its original recipe. Created in the late 19th century by Alfred Labounoux, he was able to make a shrewd blend of aromatic plants to prepare this gentian before-dinner drink, which brought him fame. Salers is made only with wild gentian root (gentiana lutea) from the Auvergne region’s heights; the roots are sorted, ground and used to make an infusion. This infusion is distilled together with many other plants. It then ages in oak barrels from the French Massif Central region.
Best drunk on it's own over ice. -

Vintage :
Variety: Gentian PlantTasting Notes:
A bitter sweet taste, on the same style of the aperol, but less bitter and more floral taste.
The roots of the Gentian plant growing at high altitude are considered to give the most perfect and elegant definition of bitterness.
Therefore they are used in the better bitter aperitifs and liqueurs instead of dandelion, artichoke and other bitter herbs or bark.
Drink on Ice or as an additive to Cocktail
