La Clandestine Absinthe Supérieure

La Clandestine Absinthe Supérieure is a Swiss blanche, or clear, absinthe, hand-crafted in Couvet, which is regarded as the birthplace of absinthe. It follows a moonshiner's recipe from 1935, and the blanche style is thought to resemble the earliest absinthes of the 18th century. The spirit is all natural, with a smooth, fresh and aromatic character and a delicate bouquet of flowers and herbs. To serve, slowly add three to four parts iced water, which turns it milky white and brings out more aroma. It also suits classic cocktails such as the Absinthe Frappé and Death in the Afternoon.
