Product Description

Absinthe is a wonderful gift, it’s not only a noble spirit full of history, mythology, and tradition, but it’s also a lifestyle.

Real Absinthe Original is made by craftsmen distillers to a secret 200-year-old Swiss absinthe recipe and it is said by connoisseurs to compare with the rarest French cognacs. The complex and distinguished taste is rounded up by a well blended herbal mix with the pronounced taste of wormwood and coriander. In its elegant new bottle, this original absinthe looks good, it tastes good, it is good. Only the highest quality ingredients are used in its manufacture and it is guaranteed to be free of artificial colorants and chemicals.

Absinthe Original contains many herbal extracts including angelica, aniseed, coriander, hyssop, juniper, nutmeg and wormwood. Just as the original absinthes of Belle Époque, Absinthe Original too draws its powerful mind-bending buzz from Artemisia Absinthium, or grande wormwood, the notorious mountain plant whose strange effects have fascinated humanity since the times of the Ancients. Absinthe Original's fine deep olive green color occurs as a result of its natural ingredients with no artificial colorings added. This also explains why the color may appear slightly different from one bottle to the next. Absinthe Original may also change color over time. This is what makes our absinthe the most authentic and desired brand in the market. In fact, these subtle variations in color have always been considered the hallmark of high-quality, genuine, real Absinthe and in the Belle Époque period, it actually distinguished a genuine Absinthe from an imitation or artificially colored products.

Always drink absinthe well chilled either with a little sugar and water or as a base for your favorite absinthe drink. Either way, La Boheme Absinthe Original is one of life's great pleasures. And always remember, must be served over ice!

Did you know that...?
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.

First time trying absinthe

I'm glad I tried this first. It was excellent, very unique flavor and that unique feel from drinking absinthe. Something like a relaxed clarity. Couldn't be happier.

Best Absinthe that is close-ish to others ive had

I really enjoyed this Absinthe and I've tried several that I can get in the US.<br /> Absinte (Van Gogh box), Grande Absente, Lucid.<br /> <br /> This was the closer to Absinte (Van Gogh) which was my favorite until I tried this. I also currently have the King of Spirits from Absinthe Original but haven't formed an opinion yet. (About to go make a double and see where the night takes me.)<br /> <br /> This had far more of a kick and gave the impression I needed to be a little more careful with it than I was with the others that I had built up a bit of a tolerance to. I drank it with brown sugar and a 3:1 water / absinthe mix and it was very good. <br /> <br /> A great "take the edge off and unwind" kind of drink. This is however VERY different in taste / texture from the King of Spirits which has a much more viscous texture and a very herby flavor. Not bad, but different. <br /> <br /> Absinthe Original is very good and I'm almost certainly going to order more for a more casual experience and save my King for more special occasions
