Combier Blanchette Absinthe

Combier Blanchette is a white absinthe with a story that stretches back over a century — and one of the most approachable and elegant absinthes available for cocktail use or traditional service. An authentic white absinthe produced by Distillerie Combier between 1899 and 1915, then reintroduced in 2006 in the same historic stills, the Blanchette is made in the Swiss "La Bleue" style rather than the more common French green tradition. Dominant aniseed flavour with herbaceous and fragrant composition enriched by fruity and vegetal notes of anise, fennel, and grand wormwood, it carries all the character of a traditional absinthe without the intense bitterness of some French expressions. The nose leads with fresh green anise, herbaceous and very fragrant with a delicate fruity, vegetal note brought by anise, fennel, and grand wormwood. Blanchette is drunk with fresh water — offering a milky, frosty cloudiness that creates a silky sensation in the mouth — and its makers recommend skipping the sugar entirely, letting the spirit's natural balance speak for itself. Bottled at 60% ABV. Buy Combier Blanchette Absinthe online with fast shipping right to your door.
