Description
The visual highlights the Rosehip (Rosa canina), or “Nesri”, a flower particularly celebrated in the Zaghouan region. This wild rose is famous for its distillate, Nesri water, a pillar of local crafts and refined pastries inherited from Andalusia. The stamp thus celebrates a delicate facet of Tunisian intangible heritage, linking the natural beauty of the flora to ancestral distillation know-how which is the pride and cultural reputation of the interior regions.
