Did you know...?

Though fortified with a formidable measure of alcohol, a depressant, absinthe is also infused with powerful herbal stimulants, creating a psychic tug of war in the mind of the imbiber. Alcohol relaxes inhibitions and invites in new ideas, and the stimulants allow you to logically process the new data. Foremost of the stimulants is thujone, the psychoactive chemical at the heart of the herb wormwood, which, along with anisette, gives absinthe its bitter, black liquorish taste. While once thought to instigate simular reactions as marijuanas THC, recent research suggests it modulates the neurotransmitter GABAA, which plays a vital role in cognitive thought. Subsequently, absinthe provides a level of clarity not usually associated with alcoholic drinks.

Absinthe Original Innocent

Absinthe Original Innocent is also available in this handsomely designed smaller bottle. Despite its pocket size, this absinthe bottle contains 25cl (8.45oz) of absinthe fairy which makes it ideal as a gift or a surprise for unique party, either way you can be assured that our Innocent absinthe will get you the best absinthe experience. As well as our other fine absinthe originals, this absinthe drink contains no artificial colorings, additives or preservatives. Absinthe Original Innocent is being distilled using 11 plants, including angelica and grande wormwood. Steeping a mixture of herbs in the distillate produces its natural green colour, the taste of Absinthe Original Innocent is just as original absinthe was meant to be. It accomplishes what many other absinthes are just trying to accomplish. It is a refined combination that makes no attempts at being overly complex just to stand out. Absinthe Innocent is a fine liquor based on fennel, anise and wormwood. These and other herbs give the fabled Fée Verte, or Green Fairy, her grassy color. Our Innocent Absinthe has been created in response to many requests we have had for a wormwood absinthe that is lower in alcohol, is slightly more bitter but which still has all the characteristics that give absinthes their reputation. Due to its lower content of alcohol, Absinthe Innocent is ideal for the first time drinker, for women or as a base in many cocktail recipes.

Did you know...?

Absinthe became one of the first liquors to crack the gender barrier, much as the speakeasies did during Americas bout with prohibition. Unlike the established and conservative liquor companies, the young turks of the absinthe trade directed advertising at women. Consequently, absinthe cafes and clubs promoted a level of drinking equality previously unknown in France.

Now, for the first time since 1912, you too can legally partake of absinthe, thanks to the European Union's pointing out a loophole in the U.S. ban. Absinthe Innocent is a fine liquor based on anise, fennel and wormwood. These and other herbs give the fabled Fée Verte, or Green Fairy, her grassy color. When the chlorophyll dies, absinthe turns, like fallen leaves, to a highly prized dark amber hue.

Did you know...?

The modern liquor known as absinthe was first produced in the late 18th century in the Val-de-Travers region of Switzerland, where a bounty of wormwood and other alpine herbs grows wild. Pierre Ordinaire, a French doctor, is believed to have invented absinthe in 1792 as a potent patent medicine, although "bon extrait d'absinthe" had been advertised in the region as early as 1769. By the late 1790s, Ordinaire's herbal elixir had already acquired the nickname la fee verte - Green Fairy.

Did you know...?

The Zippo was created in Bradford, Pennsylvania by George G. Blaisdell in 1932. After obtaining some designs for an Austrian windproof lighter, he used those to create his own rectangular shaped, windproof lighter with a hinged lid and a windhood for the flame. Fascinated by the recent invention of the zipper in a nearby Pennsylvania town, George loved the sound of the name so decided to call his windproof lighters Zippos. Since the first one was manufactured in 1932, each Zippo has come with a Lifetime Guarantee that guarantees the lighter, or Zippo fixes it for free.
Save a few minor changes in the flint wheel and case finishes, the Zippo remains nearly exactly as George Blaisdell created it 74 years ago. The American-made quality and Lifetime Guarantee makes the Zippo lighter a valuable collector's item around the world, with collectors' clubs in England, Italy, Switzerland, Germany, Japan, and of course, the United States.

Did you know...?

The medicinal use of wormwood dates back to at least 1600 B.C. The Egyptians used the bitter herb as an antiseptic, a stimulant and tonic, and as a remedy for fevers and menstrual pains. The Greeks prescribed it for jaundice, rheumatism and anemia. The Romans used wormwood to aid digestion, for upset stomach and to cure bad breath. The leaves of the shrub-like perennial were also used to expel intestinal worms, hence its English name.

Foremost of the stimulants is thujone, the psychoactive chemical at the heart of the herb wormwood, which, along with anisette, gives absinthe its bitter, black liquorish taste. While once thought to instigate simular reactions as marijuana's THC, recent research suggests it modulates the neurotransmitter GABAA, which plays a vital role in cognitive thought. Subsequently, absinthe provides a level of clarity not usually associated with alcoholic drinks.

Absinthe serving instructions:
First you pour roughly three ounces of absinthe into a heavy parfait-style stemmed absinthe glass. A perforated absinthe spoon (sometimes very elaborately so) is set upon the rim of the glass and on the spoon is placed a cube of sugar. Ice-cold water is ever so slowly dripped from a glass carafe designed specifically for that purpose, onto the cube. The sugar dissolves and you continue pouring until the ratio of absinthe to water is about two to five parts, depending upon your taste and fortitude. Give the absinthe drink a spin with the spoon and drink like you dripped - slowly.

Becherovka liquor

Becherovka is a traditional herbal recipe suitable for modern cocktails or a simple aperitif, which has a thoroughbred pedigree. Becherovka was relaunched due to the demand of many existing customers achieving great success throughout London's fashionable theme bars and chic eateries.

This delicious and unusual drink is ideal as the main ingredient in cocktails. Its well balanced unforgettable taste can also be appreciated when served neat, especially well chilled.
Jan Becher has prepared a great surprise for Becherovka lovers. Becherovka in new packaging has recently started appearing in shops, bars, and restaurants. At the same time, the revamped design of the label is just the first step of a new communication strategy intended to rejuvenate and refresh the overall image of Becherovka - one of the best-known and most popular Czech brands on the alcohol market.

Absinth Hill's

Absinthe Hill's has been discontinued.

Our mission at Absinthe Original is to showcase the finest Czech modern absinthes, to describe them honestly and to price them fairly. That is why we've decided to discontinue Hill's Absinth. It was one of the first absinthes available at our store and we kept Hill's Absinth to satisfy some of those customers that were looking for this particular brand. In our opinion, producers of Hill's Absinth are unable to sustain quality of a commercially produced absinthe and that is why we are no longer stocking this alcoholic drink. We are positive that we can offer many other real absinthe products at much better prices whether it is artificially coloured Staroplzenecky absinthe or Absinthe Verdoyante. However, if you still insist on buying Absinthe Hill's, we are truly sorry but you will have to keep searching.

Did you know...?

The modern version of absinthe can be traced back to the modest Swiss laboratory of Pierre Ordinaire, a French doctor who'd fled to Switzerland in the wake of the French Revolution. In 1792 he combined local herbs, fennel, wormwood, hyssop and anise among others, in an alcohol base. He prescribed and sold the 136 proof concoction as a cure-all medicinal tonic. It soon garnered the nickname the la Fee Verte (the Green Fairy) due to its translucent hue and the strange effect it had on its imbibers.

Absinthe Spoon

Highly polished Absinthe spoon based on the traditional 19th century design. This absinthe spoon is a high quality reproduction of the very widely used Les Ouvrages absinthe spoons that were made from quality stainless sheet.

French Absinthe ritual:
First you pour roughly three ounces of absinthe into a heavy parfait-style stemmed absinthe glass. A sometimes elaborately perforated absinthe spoon is set upon the rim of the glass and on the spoon is placed a cube of sugar. Ice-cold water is ever so slowly dripped from a glass carafe designed specifically for that purpose, onto the cube. The sugar dissolves and you continue pouring until the ratio of absinthe to water is about two to five parts, depending upon your taste and fortitude. Give the absinthe drink a spin with the spoon and drink like you dripped - slowly.

Genuine Antique Absinthe (or Absinth) spoons are prized collectibles and hard to find given the long time prohibition on the drink. Our reproductions capture the elegance of a lost age when Absinthe was a part of artistic and social life. Now that absinthe is legal again, you can recreate the opulent feeling of times past with this traditional spoon design.

Absinthe Spoon

This absinthe spoon is a chromium plated replica of les fleches. This spoon has been uniquely crafted and commissioned for Absinthe Original to allow absintheurs the ability for traditional absinthe serving, as was done in the 19th century.

Absinthe serving instructions:
First you pour roughly three ounces of absinthe into a heavy parfait-style stemmed absinthe glass. A perforated absinthe spoon (sometimes very elaborately so) is set upon the rim of the glass and on the spoon is placed a cube of sugar. Ice-cold water is ever so slowly dripped from a glass carafe designed specifically for that purpose, onto the cube. The sugar dissolves and you continue pouring until the ratio of absinthe to water is about two to five parts, depending upon your taste and fortitude. True absintheurs used to take great care in adding the water, letting it fall drop by single drop onto the sugar cube. Give the absinthe drink a spin with the spoon and drink like you dripped - slowly.

Did you know...?

Manet, Rimbaud, Jarry, Van Gogh, Gauguin, Degas, Toulouse-Lautrec and Picasso were all heavy users, and if asked, they would tell you they needed the narcotic properties of absinthe to get out of their head enough to render art that had never even been thought of by more conventional artists. Lautrec carried his supply in a hollow cane, Jarry paid homage by painting himself green, Verlaine's presumptuous manner of saying hello became, "I take sugar with it!"
