The gentian is a tall, attractive plant that grows as a pernicious weed in the high mountain pastures of the Auvergne. Tough and difficult to harvest, its root is gathered each summer by specialist "gentianeurs", whose family has often carried out the harvest for centuries. After a long softening process, an extremely bitter alcohol is extracted from these roots, and the resulting much sweetened bright yellow drink is "gentiane"
