The premier independent absinthe resource since 2003
You seem to loose your feet, and you mount a boundless realm without horizon. You probably imagine that you are going in the direction of the infinite, whereas you are simply drifting into the incoherent.

Brand information
Made by former clandestine distiller, Claude-Alain Bugnon, this is probably the most well known Swiss La Bleue on the market.
Brand information
The famous La Clandestine absinthe with a wine base alcohol. Made in the heart of Couvet by Claude-Alain Bugnon.
Brand information
This was first named La Fée Absinthe. With the claim of being the only absinthe approved by the Absinthe Museum in Auvers-sur-Oise one would hope it would be decent. I guess money talks.
Brand information
It comes as no surprise that this is another one of those Swiss La Bleues. Bought at the annual absinthe festival, Fête d'Absinthe in Boveresse.
Brand information
There are Swiss La Bleue and there are Swiss La Bleues. This is definitely a Swiss La Bleue. Ok?
Brand information
In Val-de-Travers most distillers make the classic La Bleue style absinthes. But that's not the only thing that is recurring there. The erotic - or perverted - labels is a common theme.
Brand information
Another La Bleue... This one made by Gaudentia Persoz, likely the only female distiller in Val-de-Travers.
Brand information
The name is a play of words on the Val-de-Travers. But this attempt at making a verte should have been called Val-de-Travesty.
Brand information
One of several traditional Swiss La Bleues from La Valote, Môtiers.
Brand information
The last of the three signature absinthes from La Valote.
Brand information
Another La Bleue from the La Valote distillery.
Brand information
An attempt at turning a La Bleue into a verte. A few of the Val-de-Travers distillers have tried it but not many have pulled it off.
Brand information
From Lemercier, who makes several absinthes and also other liqueurs, this is the lower strength absinthe. At only 45% but with a taste close enough to the stronger ones they make.
Brand information
One of several absinthes from the Lemercier distillery. This is also the most decent one of them but given the many better options available today, it's more a novelty item these days.
Brand information
Take the original Abisinthe 72 and add wormwood oil or add wormwood to the coloring step and this is what you get. It's bitter but not better.
