Liqueur Monin Original. After years of research, trials and tastings, Monin launched the Monin Original in the early 1910s. It is a delicate and refreshing lime liqueur, elaborated from lime peel distillation, combined with rare spices and tropical plants. It soon became famous for its surprising taste, and its unique bottle shape. While Monin was growing its range to offer now over 100 products, Monin Original’s recipe remained the same throughout the years, and it is now a bar must-have and an emblem of the Monin brand.
