Gentian, the gold of Auvergne
Gentian, considered to be the gold of Auvergne, is a mountain flower with a bitter taste. It is one of the top three medicinal and aromatic plants used in France. Its benefits are indisputable: it is known to relieve stomach aches and nausea, helps with difficult digestion and lowers fever, purifies the liver and the body and boosts energy.
artisanal gentian is a traditional aperitif from the Auvergne region, made from fresh gentian roots harvested in the mountains.
This gentian is the crudest and most bitter.
