The story of a traditional Lyonnaise bouchon encouraging Bitcoin adoption in a very French way.

This new currency is so young and so different from the usual dollars and euros, that for most people it seems disconnected from the economic reality and even further - from their lives. Despite the fact that paying with Bitcoin is not much more complicated than paying with a credit card, it looks like for the majority it is still a quasi-esoteric experience.

The city of Lyon is the capital of French gastronomy and a home to a staggering number of restaurants. Among them, the traditional “bouchon” holds a special place in the hearts of the French: serving traditional food in a traditional setting, it is comforting both for the stomach and the soul. After ensuring he was well-equipped for perpetuating Lyon’s rich gastronomic tradition, and that the famous pike quenelles in crayfish sauce were as fluffy as those served under his father’s direction, the new restaurateur decided to bring Bitcoin into the picture.As a true purist, instead of opting for an existing crypto payment solution for merchants, Benjamin put his IT degree to use and installed his own Bitcoin node, followed by BTCPay Server, a payment processor on Lightning Network.

Much more than a simple pre-dinner drink, as its name would suggest, the apéro is an important part of life in France. The combination of a leisurely afternoon, snacks, and wine makes for a great opportunity to gather with friends and remake the world. Connoisseurs might have already deduced it was the Chartreuse - a fine herbal spirit distilled by the Carhusian monks in the Chartreuse mountains of southeastern France. The formula for this digestif aged with 130 herbs and flowers is a well-guarded secret, and authentic Chartreuse is a rare drink to find.

The restaurant receives a fixed number of Chartreuse bottles every year, including the very rare Reine de Liqueurs, the Queen of Liqueur. This is what Benjamin decided to leverage.
