Deep copper with golden highlights.

Nose

1888 reveals on the nose citrus and lemon notes, enriched with hints of vanilla and honey.

Wooden boxes filled with dried herbs and plant materials arranged in a rustic setting with burlap sacks.

1888 is a delicate composition of Bénédictine liqueur and the finest cognac, left to harmonize for a period of 3 months, in addition to the long & sophisticated process it takes to make Bénédictine liqueur, in small casks of Limousin oak. This ageing in oak barrels produces the signature taste of 1888, balancing bold depth of flavour with a mellow finish.

At the heart of le Palais Bénédictine

1888 celebrates the remarkable heritage of le Palais Bénédictine, the home of the distillery since its inauguration in 1888, and the very place where Bénédictine continues to be distilled and aged today.
