Dolin Sevez Honey Lavender Liqueur...$22.99
Sevez Honey Lavender Liqueur combines the natural sweetness of Savoie honey with the fresh, balanced aromatics of lavender and alpine meadow botanicals, highlighting the family’s experience as herbalists for more than a century. A portion of the honey comes from hives near Lake Bourget in France's Savoie Valley. With its light honey color, the welcoming aromatics and taste of Sevez enlivens your drink, whether in a honey lavender lemonade, simple vodka and gin drinks, a honey lavender Old Fashioned, or the richness of a caffè latte.

Cappelletti Alpeggio Hay Liqueur...$21.99
Nestled in the high alpine meadows of the Dolomites, Alpeggio Hay Liqueur by Antica Erboristeria Cappelletti captures the sun‑drenched aroma of wild mountain hay, dried gently under pristine alpine air. At 24 % ABV, this elegantly crafted herbal spirit unfurls on the nose with delicate notes of fresh‑cut hay and alpine wildflowers, leading into a palate layered with hints of green tea, honeyed sweetness, dark chocolate, and a subtle whisper of cinnamon. Silky and long‑finishing, it evokes the crisp grasses and fragrant botanicals of its mountain origins. Beautiful neat, over ice, or sparkling with soda, tart tea, or modern cocktails, Alpeggio brings mountainous allure and unexpected herbal depth to every sip—perfect for adventurous palates seeking a truly unique expression of alpine tradition.
