Benedictine and Brandy Liqueur DOM "Le Directeur" (NY Tax Seal) (23/32 Quart) (Julius Wile & sons) 1950s Petite Sirah Heart - CinnamonB&B By Bndictine is one of the oldest premixed cocktails. In the 1930s, during Prohibition in the United States, a barman at Club 21 in Manhattan came up with the idea of mixing brandy with Bndictine. In 1937, Le Palais Bndictine decided to produce this by blending 60% Bndictine with 40% fine French Brandy, allowing the flavours to rest and harmonise in small, vintage French oak barrels that have previously been used to age only the finest cognacs.
