Production method
Made with wild elderflowers hand‑picked during the short spring season; the process uses maceration/infusion of the fresh flower to capture its aroma. Each bottle contains the essence of a large number of flowers and the product obtains its golden color naturally from the pollen.
Producer history St. Germain
St. Germain was launched in 2007 by Robert J. (Rob) Cooper as the first commercial liqueur dedicated to the elderflower. The brand grew quickly in the cocktail channel and was acquired by Bacardi Limited in 2013, which expanded its international distribution while maintaining the artisanal recipe and focus on bars and cocktails.
Production philosophy
Highlight the freshness and delicacy of the elderflower through artisanal processing designed for cocktail use: natural products, without artificial colors or flavorings, and a strong emphasis on savoir‑faire in ingredient handling.
Territory
France (the brand pays homage to the Parisian neighborhood Saint‑Germain‑des‑Prés; production takes place in France and the flowers are harvested in French areas during the spring flowering).
