History
Once upon a time, there was Birlou, a homemade liqueur created by Henri Monier and served to his customers in his little shop in Veinazès, in Cantal.
Originally, the recipe was a blend of chestnut liqueur and apple syrup, with beer added—hence its name: Bir for beer, and Lou recalling “pelou,” the name given in the Massif Central to the prickly chestnut burr.
Following its success, Henri decided to expand sales of the product beyond its region of origin.
For its 20 anniversary, the brand is introducing a new bottle, a permanent addition inspired by original sin.
Le Birlou awakens your taste buds.
Its perfect balance of chestnut and apple on the palate appeals to everyone.
