Our long weekend.

Do you know Benedictine?
This bottle is Benedictine and Brandy.đŸ„ƒ 
In fact during the long weekend I managed to fix my blog ( for the moment!) and we decided to to go to Fecamp, by the sea and to the”palais de la Benedictine”
There has been some changes since we last visited it.
We like the taste of the liquor, but are not used to drinking! So we began the visit with a glass of Benedictine when we get the tickets and do the visit with our glass in hand! All visitors having their glass.
This room is for rent for the weddings and events.


The alembics and barrels of Benedictine.
Benedictine is made of various plants and spices such 
as : cardamome, mace, lemon peels, nutmeg, thyme, black tea, angelica ,maidenhair fern,juniper berries, hysop, cloves, cinnamon and some secret plants of course!




“Le Palais de la Benedictine”







 
After we left we went to “Saint ValĂ©ry en Caux”

The cocktail bar. With the ticket we had a cocktail at the end! Spritz with Benedictine (it was very good…but) as we are not used to alcohol we ordered a crepe … but the crepe was with mandarin and… Benedictine jam!!


The monks created this beverage 


Love the ceilings












Hope you liked the visit!

    Beautiful architecture. I've not tasted Benedictine - it sounds very interesting with all those spices.
