What is Bénédictine D.O.M. liqueur?

Named after the Bénédictine monks of the Abbey of Fecamp in Normandy, France, Bénédictine, for short, is an herbal liqueur. Its flavor is described as a delicate balance of honey, warm spices, citrus, stone fruits, and herbs.

And although the recipe is a closely guarded secret, it’s known to be made with 27 plants and spices that are divided into four groups, each distilled with neutral spirits before being blended, along with honey and a saffron infusion. It’s then heated and aged in oak barrels for about four months.

Bénédictine is traditional in a Singapore sling cocktail. Try it in our Singapore Sling Punch recipe.
