But, there are a lot of items we stock all the time that people might not know about --

Compare to $33.99 at Total Wine and More
Distilled and aged in a flamboyant palace, built in Fécamp in tribute to this unique liqueur, Bénédictine is a subtle alchemy of 27 different plants and spices.
Some of the herbs and spices have been used since the biblical times and many still have a place in folk remedies. The origin of these plants is like a journey around the world: from Greece to Africa, to Indonesia, India and so much more.  Bénédictine selects product ingredients from the five continents with quality as the sole criterion of choice.
