At the beginning of the 19th century, Charles Meunier, founder of the Meunier Distillery, received a mysterious elixir recipe from the Carthusian Dom Emmanuel Nivière in thanks for having hosted monks chased from their monastery after the French Revolution. Distilled from 23 plants, this elixir, with its composition still unchanged, took the name "Liqueur du Grand-Olan" a few years later, in reference to this summit of the Ecrins massif, in the Alps, where some of the plants present in the recipe grow. The powerful aromas of Grand-Olan and its unique history make it a reference in the world of high-quality herbal liqueurs.
