Absinthe Angélique Verte Suisse - 70 cl

A full flavour and complex aromatic palate define Angélique Verte Suisse. Something a bit different.

Angélique truly is a Swiss “Verte”, coming as it does from the Val-de-Travers in Switerland, including twelve different plants, including angelica, or Angélique in French, and grand wormwood. Its colour is obtained by the natural infusion of aromatic plants, no artificial colouring is added.

Angélique Verte Suisse absinthe can be thought of as the rebellious, diabolic sister of the Clandestine. Indeed, it's stronger, more bitter, but still recognisable as a modern Swiss absinthe.

In our opinion, this is one of the best absinthes available today!

Another version, Angélique 72 Verte, is also available, in which double the amount of infusion is used for the colouring process, giving an even stronger bitterness.
Nose : Powerful grand wormwood, accompanied by an array of interesting aromas, really showing the high quality of plants used.

Paladar : Strong and complex, but well-balanced. Notes of anise, fennel and grand wormwood that go very well with other herbaceous flavours.

Finish : Very good length. Savoury bitterness (more marked than most of the more “classical” Swiss absinthes.)

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

- Angélique Verte Suisse was created two years later to satisfy customers who wanted a Swiss absinthe with a bitter twist.

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 the same year, 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 the 95-year-old prohibition was well received.
