Paragon Labdanum by Monin is a premium botanical essence that is part of the exclusive Paragon collection, developed in collaboration with renowned bartender Alex Kratena. This liquid is inspired by labdanum resin, an aromatic ingredient from the Mediterranean, famous for its balsamic richness and complex amber and earthy nuances. Designed specifically for contemporary cocktails, this essence provides unmatched aromatic depth, enhancing both classic and modern cocktails with its distinctive and elegant character. Visually, it presents a bright and clear amber-golden color. On the nose, intense resinous and balsamic aromas are highlighted, with notes of amber, honey, incense, and a herbal background. On the palate, its complexity manifests in a warm and enveloping experience, with a silky texture offering a perfect balance between sweetness and bitterness. Its finish is persistent, leaving echoes of resin and spices, that provide a deep and sophisticated aromatic sensation. Ideal for cocktails or as a complement in various beverages.
