Welcome to the anise factory, installed in a former Benedictine abbey and in one of the «Most Beautiful Villages of France».
The Anise of Flavigny is a small candy dredged, containing in its heart a seed of green anise. This is the oldest sweet in France, dating from at least 1591. At that time, it was made by monks until the French Revolution. Since then, tradition and know-how have continued from generation to generation. Today, the factory is labeled «Living heritage company».
