Nico Petri has been distilling absinthes for the Neuzeller distillery since 2003. He is at the origin of many of its creations. He uses different flowers to give three of the Neuzellers absinthes their colour, added to their natural colour. This unique colouration method brings much roundness.
Neuzeller distillery's know-how goes back as far as 1589.
In 1997, the old buildings and installations could be reused. They also renewed the still. The old distillery tradition was reborn and today offers its visitors a great attraction.
- At first, savour Neuzeller Viridis Auxilium 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 : 05/03/2017 EnglishAfter finishing the bottle I wanted to write another review.
Of course this absinthe is not so fine as Jade. The louche is not very thick and it tastes not so smooth and sweet because of smaller amount of anise and fennel in recipe. But it has very pronounced wormwood notes and strong healthy kick. It is still very good balanced and has some nice and unique floral notes which I liked very much. Tasty and good quality absinthe among of few in Germany worth a try.

Added on the : 26/07/2013 EnglishI'm glad I tried it just to cross it off my list. However, I wasn't keen on the taste of it. It put me in mind of what it would be like to drink old ladies' perfume. Still, It's won awards and friends who accepted a glass from me said they couldn't understand why I didn't like it. It must be down to personal taste.
I like herbal, peppery absinthe, varieties that are strong in wormwood and the kinds that have a lemony anise flavour. I can now confidently say that floral ones don't agree with my palate. Don't be put off by my opinion though, it seems I'm in a minority.
