Set in the heart of the remote village of Montagna-le-Reconduit, Carine, a farmer-distiller, grows and picks aromatic plants in the wild.

These plants are then distilled in a traditional alembic to make delicious absinthes.

A range of delicatessen products completes the offer: aperitif spreads, herbal oils, herbal teas, digestifs, aperitifs, petite montagne gin (new in 2024)...

Come and enjoy a little absinthe on your return from a hike in the remote Montagna-le-Reconduit! The green fairy awaits you!

The spirits :
Absinthe A 72 : traditional absinthe with green aniseed flavours.
Absinthe B 64 : atypical absinthe with complex aromas of mint, basil...
Absinthe C 55 : sweet absinthe with resinous and lemony aromas
Le Petit Mont : aniseed aperitif of the Pontarlier type at 45% vol.
Two herbal digestifs : Coeur de menthe and Coeur de verveine

And since the end of 2024, after several experiments, the Distillerie La Belle Plante now offers you the opportunity to discover the Gin de la Petite Montagne!
