Bénédictine is a herbal liqueur beverage developed by Alexandre Le Grand in the 19th century and produced in France.

The Order of Saint Benedict (OSB; Latin: Ordo Sancti Benedicti), also knownin reference to the color of its members' habitsas the Black Monks, is a Catholic religious order of independent monastic communities that observe the Rule of Saint Benedict. Each community (monastery, priory or abbey) within the order maintains its own , while the order itself represents their mutual interests. The terms "Order of Saint Benedict" and "Benedictine Order" are, however, also used to refer to all Benedictine communities collectively, sometimes giving the incorrect impression that there exists a generalate or motherhouse with jurisdiction over them.
