A TRULY SPECIAL TASTING EXPERIENCE
Unexpected,
as its story
The Carob tree, a lifeline for Monaco's people during the famine of the 19th century, is not only the Principality's national tree but also a symbol of resilience. Each carob seed, uniform in weight at 0.2g, was historically used for weighing precious gemstones and gold, from which the word "carat" derives (from the arab Qirat). This fruit, steeped in history and tradition, is roasted and slowly transformed into a distinctive and valuable liqueur, capturing the essence of Monaco's rich heritage.
