🍸 What is a digestif?
A digestif, or "digeo" for those in the know, is an alcoholic beverage served after a meal. It supposedly aids digestion, but most importantly, it extends the conviviality at the table. Richer and more complex than an aperitif, a digestif is savored slowly, often neat.

FAQ – Choosing your digestif wisely
Which digestif aids digestion best?
Clear spirits (brandies, grappa), plant-based liqueurs (chartreuse) and citrus liqueurs (limoncello) are often preferred.
Digestif or aperitif: what's the difference?
An aperitif opens the appetite (often drier and lighter), a digestif closes it (more alcoholic, longer finish).
Which digestifs make good gifts?
A VSOP Cognac, a very old Pineau des Charentes or a vintage Armagnac make excellent gourmet gifts.
What are the best digestifs?
It all depends on taste! Finesse lovers will choose a Cognac or old Pineau. Those who like power will go for grappa or Armagnac. And for a more original touch, Chartreuse or old Rivesaltes will hit the mark.
What easy cocktails can you make with digestifs?
- Sidecar (Cognac, Cointreau, lemon)
- Limoncello Spritz (limoncello, Prosecco, sparkling water)
- Pineau tonic (Pineau, tonic, orange zest)
Even digestifs lend themselves to mixology!
Are food and digestif pairings possible?
Yes, especially with fruity or sweet digestifs.
- Pineau pairs wonderfully with foie gras or fruit tarts
- Old Rivesaltes will enhance a chocolate dessert
- Armagnac can accompany blue cheese
The key? Balance between power and smoothness.
