As far as I can tell, it doesn't exist (only search hits are for some other people asking about it - used in some advertising or something?)

Hi, jorose,
Advert is for an elixir from a Secret Manuscript at the Abbey, discovered in 2010.
They say that Eleanor of Aquitaine returning from the Second Crusade in 1148 gave it to the Mother Abbess. It goes on and on.
I'll say no more. I did a check on French Abbeys and found nothing.
I knew that RootsChat would come up with an answer.
Many Thanks.
Regards
Bob.
