Why Liquor Geeks recommends it
This is a French absinthe made in the traditional style, built on a blend of botanicals that includes wormwood (Artemisia absinthium), anise, and fennel. In the glass it shows a brilliant natural green, and with ice-cold water it louches into a cloudy, opalescent drink, which is half the fun of the category. The nose leads with anise and herbs, alongside a subtle earthiness from the wormwood, sweet fennel, and a whisper of citrus. On the palate, licorice-like sweetness plays against the slightly bitter edge of wormwood. Fennel adds mild herbal sweetness, a touch of citrus zest brightens things, and the finish stays long and herbal. It suits a curious drinker ready to try the sugar-cube-and-spoon ritual for the first time. It also works for the enthusiast who wants a classic, anise-forward reference bottle on the back bar. We carry it because it delivers balance, a proper louche, and a ritual worth sharing with friends.
Pairs well with
- Roast pork with absinthe glaze — A small splash in the glaze carries the anise and fennel notes into the meat, echoing the herbal sweetness in the glass.
- Lemon tart — The bright citrus zest in the absinthe picks up the tart's lemon, while the anise sweetness balances the acidity.
- Evening ritual with friends — Dripping ice-cold water over sugar and watching the green spirit louche turns the herbal, anise-driven pour into a shared moment.

Yes. For a simpler modern serve, mix it with cold water at a 1:3 or 1:4 ratio, depending on how strong you like it. Add a few ice cubes and garnish with a sprig of fresh mint or a twist of lemon peel. You can also use a small amount in sauces, desserts, or glazes.
