This program celebrates the ancestral art of distillation, an essential component of Tunisian artisanal and olfactory heritage, particularly vibrant in the Cap Bon region. The illustration features the traditional still and bitter orange flowers (neroli), symbolizing know-how passed down from generation to generation which punctuates Tunisian spring. This stamp promotes not only a precious cultural tradition, but also an economic activity linked to perfumery and gastronomy, anchoring the identity of the country in its Mediterranean scents.
