Farigoule, thyme liqueur

Farigoule is a traditional liqueur in Provence. Many families, and farmers in particular, make it from harvesting thyme and marc. This recipe is a direct result of this tradition. The thyme is picked just when it blossoms in the spring or early in the autumn. It is macerated then distilled. The mixture of the flowering tops and dried leaves gives Farigoule a better aromatic balance.
