Description
Moulin Vert Absinthe is our new Absinthe of the Month. Why? Because we just distilled a new batch. The coloration herbs still have all its freshness, which give this batch a very interesting twist. Read more below:
Moulin Vert is a naturally green Absinthe with the vividness of the Belle Époque era. It is distilled in Fougerolles, France, at the historical Devoille distillery. The distillery was founded in 1859 and until today it is family run with a great focus on tradition and quality. Moulin Vert is a 100% natural product, meaning that no artificial additives are used, neither for the distillation nor for the coloring process. The poetic green color of Moulin Vert is 100% plant-based. The alcohol level is set at classic 68% to set free and preserve the natural green color of the used coloring herbs like hyssop and artemisia pontica.
Moulin Vert's taste is intense and substantially herbal. It comes with a slight bitterness (wormwood) and grassy, mineral notes of artemisia pontica, reminiscent of a Sauvignon Blanc. These notes are still very present, as the Absinthe was just distilled (new batch). Overall, it is a very fresh and elegant Absinthe. We recommend serving Absinthe Moulin Vert with two parts cold water and one sugar cube. This allows the complex flavors to come forth in full effect, so you can truly experience the authentic spirit of history.
For Free: One antique-finished Absinthe Spoon Antique worth USD 8.90.
Moulin Vert and the Moulin Rouge:
In the period known as the Belle Époque, many intellectuals and artists confessed their love for the Green Fairy. In what was considered one of the most notorious Absinthe bars in Paris, the "Moulin Rouge", famous Absintheurs like Toulouse Lautrec, Baudelaire and Van Gogh met for the "Heure Verte", the Green Hour. In reference to this history-charged establishment, Absinthe Moulin Vert was created.
