This is one of those liqueurs that can completely alter your conception of the category after too many weird, warm nips of Chambord and Galliano. The Bernard family has been making artisanal liqueurs in the alpine hills of the Piedmont in Italy for generations; they and their team harvest the flowers with scissors, by hand, leaving roots so new plants and flowers will sprout. This thyme liqueur has no artificial colorants or aromas or preservatives at all; it's fragrant, refreshing, bracing—terrific over one ice cube as a digestif but also incredible with various varieties of gin.
