Rare Antique Bénédictine D.O.M. Herbal Liqueur Bottle – Original Bottling (c. 1940s-50s) An exceptional and fully authentic vintage bottle of the legendary French herbal liqueur Bénédictine D.O.M., produced at the historic distillery in Fécamp, Normandy, France. Producer: Bénédictine D.O.M. (Société Anonyme de la Grande Distillerie) Origin: Pasajes, Spain Estimated Era: c. 1920s–1930s Volume: 73 cl (standard pre-metric/vintage European sizing) Alcohol Content: 43% ABV / 86 Proof (higher proof vintage recipe) Closure & Seal: Original lead/paper capsule fully intact over the cork, with the authentic paper-and-lead ribbon band leading to the glass ring seal on the shoulder.
