Comment

The name of this product comes from the following anecdote: the brothers Pallade and Simon Violet specialized in the sale of fabrics. When looking for a name for this new beverage, they were attracted by one of their fabric coupons, presented in the form of a color chart; each fabric was traditionally referenced by a letter. The suite "B.Y.R.R.H." jumped out at the merchants and was immediately adopted as the name for their aperitif. Https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byrrh
