MANE

Sourcing Benzoin Siam in Vietnam   Deep in the forests of northern Vietnam, a majestic tree called Styrax tonkinensis produces a unique resin known as benzoin. Here, we visited with our long-standing benzoin supplier, who showed us how they grew, harvested and prepared this ingredient.   The benzoin supply chain is an important driver of the local economy. Alongside its partner, MANE spearheaded efforts to help restore this value chain in Vietnam which benefits 500 local residents today. We are deeply grateful to our partner and their employees for their hard work and dedication in providing us with such high-quality resin.   Once the benzoin arrives at our workshop in Le Bar-sur-Loup, our teams transform this ingredient into Benzoin PURE JUNGLE ESSENCE™. This compound has a rich profile with fruity, ambery, gourmand and balsamic facets that delight perfumers, including Han Nguyen, our Vietnam-based perfumer. Han witnessed the growth of this value chain first-hand and now incorporates this extract into her creations. © Florian BONIN #MANEingredients #MANEsourcing #MANEperfumers

Let's zoom in together on this latest trend: Asian mixology! This consists of reinventing traditional cocktails with local Asian flavours and ingredients. The result is a fresh and resolutely modern take on the classic cocktail and an unforgettably innovative cocktail experience.

Honey is an incredibly versatile ingredient with a richness that goes beyond its sweet taste. After all, who hasn't heard of its many health-boosting benefits? Its natural sweetness and complex flavour profile add a gourmet touch to recipes and a new twist to classic flavours. Whether it’s drizzled over cheese, stirred into yogurt, used to glaze meats or added to sweeten tea, coffee or smoothies, honey can help elevate any sensory experience. Honey pairs well with a wide range of flavours. Some delightful combinations to inspire your creations are Honey & Spice (e.g. cinnamon and ginger), Honey & Herbs (e.g. basil and thyme), Honey & Fruit (e.g. apple and pear), Honey & Nuts (e.g. almonds and walnuts), and Honey & Sauces (e.g. honey mustard and honey sriracha). The remarkable versatility of honey speaks for itself! Contact MANE for more ideal honey pairings and recipes! #MANEGroup #flavors #honey

The lavender flowers have finally arrived at our workshop in the South of France!   Patience was key, as lavender bloomed later than usual this year. Our lavender fields are located at an altitude of 1,100 metres, and our supplier experienced harvesting delays due to the late arrival of warmer temperatures. Better late than never, though, as seeing the lavender flowers in full bloom adorning the iconic landscapes of Provence is always a feast for the eyes.   Although natural variations have always existed, it is more important than ever to stand firm in our commitment to protect and care for nature. At MANE, we feel very close to nature; it is at the heart of everything we do. This connectedness sustains us, fuels our drive to continue to craft high-quality lavender extracts, and gives us patience as we wait for nature to bestow us with its many gifts. #ingredientsbyMANE #sourcingbyMANE
