La Grande Bonespéreuse – The Spirit of Great Abbey Liqueurs

Inspired by the famous Bonespéreuse, La Grande Bonespéreuse takes the exploration of plants, spices and great aromatic balances even further. More intense, more powerful and more complex, this artisan creation pays tribute to the tradition of great monastic liqueurs while asserting its own identity.

Handcrafted by Plus Oultre Distillery, this liqueur particularly showcases angelica, an iconic plant known for its aromatic richness and botanical depth. Other carefully selected fine ingredients surround it to build a complex, intense and elegant aromatic palette.

At 50% ABV, La Grande Bonespéreuse fully embraces its character. The goal was clear: to recapture the intensity, power and aromatic richness of the great historic botanical liqueurs, while developing a distinctive, modern artisan signature. The result offers a full, warm palate carried by herbaceous, spicy and lightly mentholated notes, with an exceptional finish.

This liqueur will appeal to lovers of characterful spirits, enthusiasts of powerful digestifs and admirers of complex, authentic botanical recipes.

Produced in a limited edition of just 1130 bottles a year, every bottle is a true collector's piece. This symbolic number pays tribute to the founding year of Bonne-Espérance Abbey, a place steeped in history with which this liqueur is intimately connected.

🍸 Serving ideas & cocktails:
• Neat as a digestif, at room temperature
• Ice-cold to accentuate its vegetal freshness
