Combier Elixir
Elixir Combier is a piece of French spirits history — a recipe born in a prison cell, perfected by one of France's greatest liqueur makers, and considered lost for decades before being rediscovered in the House of Combier's 177-year-old archives. The recipe was inspired by Jean-Baptiste Combier's time in prison, where he met a Dr. Raspail who made a dessert liqueur that Combier refined and improved into the Elixir. Created in 1852 and produced until 1980, this historic recipe was relaunched in 2011 with its original packaging. An exotic blend of more than 15 extracts of herbs, plants, spices, flowers, and roots grown in the Loire Valley or sourced from Africa, India, and Southeast Asia — key ingredients including aloe, nutmeg, myrrh, cardamom, cinnamon, and saffron are combined to reproduce the exact recipe. The aroma is a harmonious balance of herbal and floral elements including anise, citrus peel, and coriander, while the taste is herbaceous and moderately sweet with a touch of cardamom and clove spice and a pleasantly lingering aftertaste. It works beautifully as a yellow Chartreuse substitute in a Bijou cocktail. No artificial flavors, colors, or preservatives. Buy Combier Elixir online with fast shipping right to your door.
