La Valdotaine Genepy Extra is a spirit that draws from the rich tradition of the Alps. Produced in the heart of Valle d'Aosta, this liqueur embodies the essence of mountain aromas, thanks to the use of Genepy, a variety of Artemisia typical of alpine areas. The 70cl bottle promises a unique sensory journey.

With a color that slightly veers towards light green, La Valdotaine Genepy Extra reveals intense herbal and fresh notes on the nose, with a subtle undertone of alpine flowers. On the palate, the taste is elegant and well-balanced, with a natural sweetness that does not overpower the typical bitterness of Genepy, resulting in a long and pleasantly aromatic finish.

Ideal as a post-meal digestif, it can be served cold or at room temperature and is often used as a base for innovative cocktails. This spirit is a tribute to the biodiversity and culture of the mountains, ideal for those seeking a drink that combines tradition and artisanal quality.
