Salers Gentiane Labounoux – Circa 1980s

The Authenticity of a Traditional Auvergne Liqueur

The Salers Gentiane Labounoux, likely dating from the 1980s, is an iconic liqueur from the Auvergne region, crafted from the root of gentian—a wild plant known for its bitter properties and digestive benefits. This artisanal liqueur embodies a long-standing regional tradition, combining heritage and distinctive character.

With a golden yellow color, it reveals a complex bouquet of vegetal, earthy, and floral notes typical of gentian, complemented by subtle hints of spices and caramel. On the palate, the pronounced bitterness is well balanced by a gentle sweetness, offering freshness and a lingering finish.

The 1980s Salers Gentiane Labounoux is perfect as an aperitif or digestif, served neat or in cocktails, and appeals to lovers of bold, natural, and terroir-driven flavors from France.
