Absinthexplore La Clandestine Wine Alcohol - 50 ml

La Clandestine absinthe reveals a very complex aromatic palette and a delicate final bitterness.
Probably the best “Bleue”

Awarded the gold medal several times at different contests, La Clandestine is issued from a 1935 recipe that includes more than 10 plants.
It is one of the first absinthes distilled in the Val-de-Travers, cradle of this drink’s distillation. Its traditional production uses only natural products.

Because it is elaborated with wine alcohol, it will be perfect if you wish to keep a couple of bottle in you cellar. It will only go better !
Nose : Complex blend of aromas (especially fennel, hyssop, anise and wormwood). Proof of the richness of the plants used.

Palate : Remarkably mellow and fresh. Aniseed attack developing rapidly into notes of fennel and wormwood.

Finish : Excellent length on the palate and agreeable bitterness.

- Claude-Alain Bugnon is the first Swiss distiller to have obtained a production licence in 2005.

- The name Charlotte that appears on the label of La Clandestine bottle, comes from the original author of its recipe. This lady first used this recipe in 1935.

Claude-Alain Bugnon distilled his first absinthe illegally in 2000.
The following year, having received a recipe from one of his friends, he decided to make a living from distilling.

In 2004, he applied for permission to produce absinthe, and at the end of that same year, he shipped his first order to Germany.

A few months later, on the 1st of March 2005, the Federal Council decided to legalize absinthe in Switzerland. The end of this 95 year old abolition pleased everyone.

- At first, savour La Clandestine Wine Alkohol without any sugar. Then according to your taste, add some eventually.

- For one measure of absinthe (3cl), add 2 to 5 measure of fresh water.
