About this bottle
Grande Absente is a French absinthe made with wormwood (grande absinthe) alongside anise, fennel, and a blend of other herbs, following a traditional 19th-century recipe. Bottled at a notably high 69% ABV, it's far stronger than most spirits on the shelf and meant to be diluted rather than drunk straight. The louche — the milky clouding that happens when water is added — releases the herbal and anise aromatics fully, revealing a complex, herbaceous profile beyond simple black licorice flavor. A serious choice for absinthe enthusiasts who want an authentic, traditionally produced bottle rather than a novelty version.
How to drink Grande Absente
The traditional method: pour a measure into a glass, rest a slotted absinthe spoon with a sugar cube on top, and slowly drip ice water over it until the drink louches milky white and is diluted roughly 3 to 5 parts water to 1 part absinthe.
