Chef Bernard Loiseau was one of the pioneers of nouvelle cuisine at his iconic restaurant in Saulieu, Burgundy and since his death in 2003, his wife Dominique and right hand man, Patrick Bertron have maintained the restaurants three Michelin Stars, now continuously held for 18 years.

Since Bernard’s death, Patrick Bertron and the restaurants Head Sommelier, Eric Goettelmann have collaborated with Jean Battault, owner of liqueur house Gabriel Boudier, to create a range of liqueurs and ‘crèmes’ with flavours to appeal to chefs and mixologists alike, this example being raspberry and thyme flavoured.

Review and Tasting

Sampled on 04/11/2012

Appearance:

Clear, maroon red.

Aroma:

Fresh thyme, dried lavender and freshly picked raspberries.

Taste:

Delivers much of what the nose promises but with the raspberry leading the spices. Raspberry turns toward boiled sweets rather than fresh fruit.

Aftertaste:

Raspberry, lavender and thyme infused sugar.
