Epinal folk images

The people of the Vosges are proud of their heritage ... and so is Lecomte-Blaise! Which is why we have selected a series of Images d’Epinal - folk images produced locally – to illustrate the labels of our eaux de vie, liquors, creams and aperitifs.

Check out the traditional images of La Fontaine’s Fables on our bottles, including the Fox and the Crow, the Town Mouse and the Country Mouse, and the Hare and the Tortoise.

New: Birsapin, the bitter with fir

You liked Amer-Blaise, our bitter with mirabelle plum. You will love the Birsapin, the bitter with Fir !

Birsapin is a fiercely bitter made from fir tree buds harvested in spring in our Vosges mountains.

Gentian and cinchona bark, enhanced with notes of orange, bring their force to this indomitable and elusive Bitter ...

The vegetal notes of the fir tree are highlighted by the warmth of the orange and the strength of the gentian and cinchona. Birsapin combines all these flavors in an exclusive balance.

absinths Libertine natural made with plants

Libertine® absinthes

All our absinthes are distilled and prepared using around a dozen different plants: artemisia absinthium and artemisia pontica, lemon balm, hyssop, fennel, coriander, liquorice, angelica, and so on.

Our Libertine® absinthes are made according to authentic late 19th-century recipes. They are created by blending distillates in varying proportions. They contain 55-72 % alcohol by volume and the aromatic notes are very different from one absinthe to another. The colour is entirely natural, developing as chlorophyll is extracted from the plants. 

We also offer a choice of accessories such as fountains, spoons, glasses and trays.

morello cherries candied fruits irresistible

Liquor-soaked fruit

Pure indulgence – as any epicurean will tell you, these are simply irresistible!

Our “La Cerise à Paul®” cherries are stoned and then very slightly candied in Kirsch-based liquor (15% alcohol per volume). They can be used in so many ways, such as enhancing a dessert (ice cream, fruit salad, black forest gateau, etc.) or to decorate a cocktail. Or use them with a roast or duck.

Also available: Prunes and mirabelles.

La Welche® beers

We offer a selection of craft beers from the Pays Welche brewery in Lapoutroie, on the Alsatian slopes of the Vosges. The brewery produces different kinds of beers in 33 cl bottles: lager, amber ale and white (wheat) beer, and also Spring and Christmas beers in season.
They are all made using organic malt and according to traditional brewing methods. These are non-pasteurised, non-filtered top-fermented beers, which are then refermented in the bottle.

They are awarded at the International Wine, Beer and Spirits Competition in Lyon.
