A definite must have Absinthe when you have already tried the Eichelberger Limitée. This Absinthe has a modified recipe and makes use of some additional herbs. Eichelberger is very special because only fresh (not dried) wormwood is used for the distallation. The result is a fresh and fruity taste. Give it a try; it’s hard to tell which one is better. Maybe you should go for both...

Eichelberger - Absinthe distillation with tradition:

A great-grandfather of the Eichelberger family, Eduard Heinrich Nötzel, lived from 1800 to 1874 in Danzig. He assumed ownership of the wood wholesale trade business of his father but expanded the business very soon. The advertisement in the old newspaper „Neuesten Wegweiser für Fremde und Einheimische" shows, that he started to offer different spirits and essences, including an „Extracte d`Absinthe“. In his tavern "Zum Elefanten" ("To the Elephant"), the label shows the tavern and the elephant, his specialties were offered. His son, Otto Luis Nötzel, continued the flourishing buisness. Unfortunately he died young and his son was too young to manage the company. Therefore the business was shut down around 1900. Due to the two world wars the history of the family heritage was almost forgotten...

Until in 1997 the Wild family started again with the production of Absinthe in the Eichelberger distillery.
