Verveine du Velay Yellow 70cl

Verveine du Velay Yellow Label | Pagès Jaune de Velay Liqueur

A Soft and Honeyed Herbal Liqueur Crafted from Lemon Verbena and Fine Cognac

Verveine du Velay Yellow (Jaune de Pagès) is the elegant, sweeter sibling to the famous Green expression. While it shares the same historic DNA and secret botanical recipe as its predecessor, the Yellow Label is crafted for those who prefer a more delicate, honey-forward profile. Produced in the heart of the Auvergne region since 1859, this spirit is a masterful blend of verbena leaves and a complex array of aromatic herbs and spices.

The secret to its renowned "softness and finesse" lies in the master distiller’s assemblage, which combines plant distillates with high-quality cognac and local Auvergne honey. This produces a liqueur that is less intense in alcohol than the Green version but significantly richer in floral and balsamic sweetness.

Tasting Notes

Nose: Delicately aromatic with a primary scent of lemon verbena, complemented by soft floral notes, chamomile, and a rich, honeyed undertone.

Palate: The palate is silky and round. It features a harmonious blend of citrusy verbena and herbal complexity, balanced perfectly by the warmth of French cognac and the natural sweetness of Auvergne honey. It is noticeably smoother and milder than the Green label.

Finish: A long, gentle finish that is clean and soothing, leaving a faint trail of spice and wildflower honey.

The Secret Distillation Process

Water-Bath Copper Stills: To ensure the plants do not burn, the distillery uses "bain-marie" copper stills. This gentle, slow heating captures the most refined aromatic distillates.
Artisanal Ingredients: The master distiller assembles a precise mixture of plant infusions, verbena alcoholates, sugar, and fine cognac.
Honey from Auvergne: Unlike many mass-produced liqueurs, Pagès uses local honey to provide a textured, natural sweetness.
Oak Barrel Ageing: The liqueur is rested for several months in oak barrels in the distillery’s cellars. This ageing process allows the various botanicals to marry, resulting in a sophisticated and mellow spirit.
