Angélique is a genuine Verte Suisse absinthe, distilled using 12 plants,
including angelica and grande wormwood from the Val-de-Travers.
Steeping a mixture of aromatic plants in the
distillate produces its natural colour.
Angélique has been created in response to many requests we have had for a Swiss absinthe that is slightly more bitter but which still has all the characteristics that gives Swiss absinthes their reputation.
Angélique may be considered to be the natural daughter of Charlotte La Clandestine, but she is at once angelic and a little "devilish!"
Serve with 4/5 measures of fresh water, perhaps over a sugar cube depending on your preference.
Some customer comments on Angélique:
"Oh my....we just tried it. You have created a wonderful new verte. That smells wonderful and tastes incredibly delicious. Congratulations on one of the best I have tasted in the vertes. We already love the CLB! When can we "talk" about this product on the Wormwood Society website? Best to you. This is outstanding!" ..... "Our desert island absinthe." (B & C, Washington).
"The most amazing quality of this verte suisse is its mouth feel, truly like nothing I've drank before. Louche is beautiful, perfect. Great with sugar! Sweet, bitter, and very aromatic, Angelique is my new favorite, even my friends preferred it when i let them sample my absinthes (their first time)." (K, California)
"I thought the Angelique was terrific. It was well-balanced with just the right amount of wormwood." (J, Nevada)
"I want to congratulate Claude-Alain on the Angélique. It's wonderful! I hope it'll be going into full production soon so that I can rave about it on the forum! It's definitely my favorite verte of the ones I've tried so far, superceding the Jades which constitute my only reference. If Artemisia is aiming for a monopoly, well, you're quite close to having one in my book. :) I think I'm going to start telling my friends absinthe is a Swiss beverage." (D, New Mexico)
