- The Jade absinthes are distilled in copper bain marie stills that were acquired directly from the Pernod Fils distillery. They have a capacity of 1150 liters, were built entirely by hand around 1870 and feature full hydro-rectification.
- Each Jade absinthe bottle is encapsulated by hand in the traditional wax, and each receives the Jade Liqueurs seal of authenticity.
Jade Liqueurs was founded by T.A. Breaux, a professional scientist who has dedicated over a decade of research toward resolving the mysteries and myths associated with absinthe. His quest for the unadulterated truth has taken him across the globe in search of obscure, overlooked, and forgotten information that documents this often maligned subject. Jade Liqueurs was established in 2000 for the sole purpose of offering the connoisseur the opportunity to experience unequivocal recreations of the classic absinthes that fueled the creative fires of the Belle Époque. The absinthes crafted by Jade Liqueurs are historically accurate and authentic down to unimaginably minute details.
The absinthes recreated by Jade Liqueurs are made possible only because T. A. Breaux and his associates possess immaculately preserved bottles of the most famous original absinthes of the 19th century. Armed with an education and experience in applied analytical sciences, Mr. Breaux has worked in conjunction with other accomplished scientific minds in perfecting the sophisticated techniques needed to unlock the many secrets of the original liquor. His research has been recognized in books, magazines, newspapers, television, and filmed documentaries, and his educated insight is frequently sought by writers, researchers, and historians.
Through the continuing efforts of T. A. Breaux and his associates, Jade Liqueurs will remain established as a marque of uncompromised artisanship and the unmatched leader in authenticity and quality.
- At first, savour your Jade 1901 with half a piece of sugar. Then, add more or less according to your taste.
- For one measure of absinthe (3cl), add 2 to 5 measures of fresh water.

Added on the : 27/11/2019 EnglishAbsolutely delicious. I experimented quite a lot with this drink. I found that the best flavors I could get out of it were by mixing it with just water (and no sugar,) or by mixing it with cranberry soda instead of water if I was feeling like drinking something more sweet.
The color is beautiful, especially when it louches. There's nothing quite like holding this drink up and having the sunlight shine through it.
The anise is the strongest flavor in this drink, but there are many pleasant flavors in the background.
It is not overpowering in any sense. It goes down smooth and leaves your mouth feeling silky due to the louche.
Overall, I highly recommend this. It is perfect in my eyes. If you hate the flavor of anise, this isn't for you, but then again neither is absinthe in general.

Added on the : 02/09/2019 EnglishExactly what I like about this absinthe is the complex mix of herbs and spices that give this an amazing taste. I've come across quite a few absinthes that can pass as just tasting like "black jellybeans" to most people, but this one separates itself from that crowd. The anise and fennel are not on the forefront of this particular one. In fact, it's hard to even tell if there is one dominant flavor. It's like they all meld together into a delicious mural of colorful tastes that leave you wondering what you just tasted, but you don't care, you just want more. On top of the flavor, the louche is particularly thick and opalescent. It really is a beauty. This is an expensive bottle, but one that every absinthe drinker should try. I would recommend it for more experienced absinthe drinkers since it is a real top shelf bottle and it's nice to try it after wetting your whistle with a few others prior. This is the kind of spirit I would not buy frequently, but I know I will be very happy coming back to.

Added on the : 29/08/2019 EnglishMy first bottle of absinthe and I love it. It's really balanced so the aniseed is not overpowering. I got this for a 1920s-style party and some people don't like absinthe, but they felt it was not too strong that they couldn't drink it. It's something that suits everyone...and it's plenty strong!

Added on the : 05/08/2019 EnglishClassic little number. Although the anise is not overpowering it is predominant and for my palate it made it hard to discern other elements, the louche and mouth feel it exquisite. Most enjoyable drink, try with a little less sugar but as twist treat yourself to some 'Parma Violets' (sweets) on the side the combination is lovely.
My only gripe is the wine bottle style cork, without a hand openable element; the alcohol evaporation dries the cork out to the point of disintegration the cork-screw destroyed it, poring through a tea strainer was an interesting addition to the absinthe ritual, perhaps next time I should add my iced water served from a tea-pot!

Added on the : 14/05/2019 EnglishThis one is a perfect allround absinthe for every mood.
No hangovers, high quality alcohol.
Very dominant anise taste, with a spicy white pepper touch.
Simple liquorice taste, with wormwood in the background and floral notes on top accompanied with a earthy and sweet wine taste.

By Jake
Added on the : 21/03/2019 EnglishWow, this is just it. I had a few different bottles to taste, me and all of my mates simply said 1901 was the best of them all. Thick and rich texture, super oily, provides a wonderful louche effect, taste is just what you would expect, full, round, pungent and refined. Lots of grassy absinthe notes and mild-thick aniseed. Vivid olive green hue with thick louche, intense aromatic experience, to be sipped slowly, intensely aromatic, super smooth, on the connoisseur side, extremely refined and rewaring. Delicious.

Added on the : 13/09/2018 EnglishOne of my favorite absinthes. Underlying sweetness, matched with a healthy bitterness but not biting in any way. The balance of flavors is amazing. High alcohol content, but doesn't taste that way. I prefer it on the rocks without sugar or water, and wait for minimal dilution before starting to enjoy.
