Karlovy Vary's herbal liqueur was invented here, and its former factory in the centre is now a museum: the history of the Becher family, old bottles, interactive rooms and virtual reality. Every tour ends with a tasting of four of the house's liqueurs; in other versions, with the Czech national cocktail, the BeTon (Becherovka with tonic). Under-18s may enter with an adult, without the tasting. Next door is the official shop.
