L'Absinthe Verte NV is a modern absinthe that draws inspiration from traditional French recipes while adding a touch of contemporary boldness.
Created by George Rowley in 2008, this absinthe takes its inspiration from research conducted at the Schimmel Library, the oldest herbalist library in Europe.
While the classic absinthe ingredients, such as grand wormwood, fennel, and star anise, are well represented, more innovative elements like natural vanilla from Madagascar and cocoa beans add a unique sweetness and complexity. The name "Envy" (NV) evokes feelings of passion, desire, and admiration—a drink so desired it stirs envy in those who have yet to taste it.
TASTING NOTES:
NOSE: Upon opening, intense aromas of aniseed herbs are revealed, complemented by soft and subtle notes of vanilla and mint. The whole is refreshing and inviting.
PALATE: The palate is lively and rich, blending classic flavors of anise and grand wormwood with a modern, creamy touch of cocoa. Vanilla brings a balanced sweetness, counterbalanced by the slightly earthy bitterness of fennel and wormwood. The whole is harmonious, with a nice roundness in the mouth.
FINISH: Long and silky, the finish reveals sweet notes of vanilla and cocoa, mingled with a refreshing hint of mint and a subtle bitterness of herbs that lingers pleasantly.
