The Vieux Pontarlier is an historical absinthe carefully distilled in our old alambics (more than 100 years old) using regional wormwood (Artemisia absinthium), which is considered the most fragrant in the world, Provencal fennel seeds, green anise seeds and a variety of additional aromatic herbs and spices meticulously selected. Faithful to the tradition, no sugar of any kind was added, its intense and refreshing taste is obtained solely from the combination of plants and our master distiller's skills.
Its peridot green colour turns into opalescent clouds during the absinthe ritual where a slow drip of iced water is added from a carafe or fountain.
Its taste, subtle mix of bright anise, alpine herbs and wormwood with mentholated notes, makes the Vieux Pontarlier absinthe the refreshing and powerful drink par excellence.
