This delicious golden coloured liqueur is infused with the flavours of the Mediterranean and is best sipped in the company of friends and loved ones.
Terre de Monaco

Many Monaco apartments boast sun-filled terraces and balconies, ideal for developing a kitchen garden where local produce can flourish, from antioxidant-rich vegetables to sun-ripened fruit. Terre de Monaco has numerous gardens throughout the principality, including on top of the conference room floor at the Monte-Carlo Bay Hotel & Resort, which is filled with seasonal edible flowers, herbs, fruits, pulses, and vegetables. Terre de Monaco produce is sold to local restaurants, including the Michelin-starred Blue Bay, while residents can also purchase this locally grown made in Monaco produce, ensuring a true farm-to-fork experience.
