Absinthe, famously known as 'La Fée Verte' or 'The Green Fairy', is an iconic, highly alcoholic anise-flavored spirit derived from botanicals, including the flowers and leaves of grand wormwood, together with green anise, sweet fennel, and other culinary and medicinal herbs. Originally created in Switzerland in the late 18th century as a medicinal elixir, it rose to massive popularity in late 19th-century France, becoming the beloved drink of bohemian artists and writers in Paris like Vincent van Gogh and Oscar Wilde. Despite a nearly century-long ban fueled by misconceptions about its hallucinogenic properties, modern science has vindicated the spirit, leading to a massive global revival. Today, premium Absinthe is celebrated for its complex herbal profile, striking green louche effect when mixed with water, and its deep historical allure.

Frequently Asked Questions
No. The myth that absinthe causes hallucinations was propagated during the late 19th and early 20th centuries to ban the spirit. While it contains thujone (from wormwood), the levels in properly distilled absinthe are far too low to have any psychoactive effects other than those caused by the high alcohol content.
The traditional 'French Method' involves placing a sugar cube on a slotted absinthe spoon over a glass containing a measure of the spirit. Ice-cold water is slowly dripped over the sugar, dissolving it into the drink. This reduces the high ABV and causes the essential oils to precipitate, turning the clear green liquid into a milky, opalescent cloudy mixture known as the 'louche'.
It has a powerful, complex herbal flavor dominated by anise (similar to black licorice) and fennel, balanced by an earthy, slightly bitter backbone from the wormwood.
