The base liqueur is a mixture of over 27 plants, and alcohol made by Benedictine Monks since at least the middle ages (around 1510 A.D.). The monastery it was made in was looted during the French Revolution, and the book containing the secret recipe was sold to a local notable. The book was then resold to Alexandre Le Grande who found and deciphered the recipe for Bénédictine Liqueur. B&B liqueur is made from Bénédictine liqueur (60%) and Otard cognac (40%).
Thick oily entry at first sweet then rapidly getting spicy in a sweetish way (think spice jellybeans) taste that is felt as much as tasted. Cognac component adds a little fire and thins out what would otherwise be a bit sticky of a liqueur. Finish is medium-long and spiciness stays with you to the end.
