Dolin Génépy le Chamois

Dolin Génépy le Chamois is a traditional 45% ABV high-mountain herbal liqueur from Chambéry, France, crafted following Dolin’s historic 1821 recipe. Embodying the classic spirit of the French Alps, Génépy le Chamois is made by real plant maceration rather than pre-prepared extracts. Hand-harvested Artemisia mutellina flowers (mountain sage)—picked at peak aromatic intensity on high-altitude alpine slopes during midsummer—are combined with over 30 locally sourced alpine herbs. The mixture is then distilled in traditional copper alembic stills and gently balanced. Tasting Notes Color: Pale green and yellow tint. Nose: Concentrated, pungent, and clean herbal aromatics with fresh floral undertones and a hint of citrus. Palate: Rich, velvety, and sweet mouth-coating texture featuring dominant mountain sage, cooling menthol, and fresh herbal complexity. Finish: Long, warming, and refreshing close with lingering notes of candy cane and lavender.
