World of Absinthe Set anisefree

If you don't like anise, i.e. you are looking for an Absinthe without the typical herbal taste, this is the place for you. This non-licorice Absinthe set contains a bottle of the anise-free Absinthe Gold68. Instead of anise, orange and lemon extracts are used to give the Absinthe a fresh note. It also contains two traditional Absinthe glasses with reservoir, two high-quality stainless steel Absinthe spoons and a pack of Absinthe sugar cubes. With this set, you can start the traditional Absinthe preparation, because it contains everything you need to drink Absinthe classically (more information about the Absinthe ritual can be found below).

We recommend drinking Absinthe Gold68 with at least two sugar cubes, as the focus of the Absinthe recipe is on wormwood. Wormwood has a bitter taste by nature, so Gold68 also has a slight bitter note. Furthermore, the bitter taste of wormwood is not masked by sweet-tasting herbs like fennel or anise, because the absence of these herbs creates the aspired non-licorice taste of this Absinthe. Due to the absence of aniseed, the louche of this Absinthe is also very weak, as it is normally caused by the essential oils of aniseed. To put it more precisely: Gold68 is wormwood in a square, you can taste and feel it without masquerades. As Gold68 does not contain anise, it can also be used for cocktails/long drinks. For example, Absinthe Gold68 mixed with Ginger Ale, Tonic Water or Red Bull garnished with a slice of lemon or orange, depending on preference. But be careful, these drinks are quite strong.

Premium wormwood is used for Absinthe Gold68

Gold68 is produced in the small French town Fougerolles. In the 19th century, Fougerolles was home of various Absinthe distilleries. And actually, until today, the city is known for its premium spirits. Many distilleries look back on a century-long history, including the distillery where Gold68 is produced. It was founded in 1859 and still today the distillery cultivates its own wormwood. Every year in July, the wormwood plants are harvested. This means the plants, which now have a height of approx. 2 meter (6.5 feet) are cut by hand and then dry for the next 6 months in a wooden hut. The warm climate in summer, and the cold temperatures in winter, are the perfect conditions to further enhance the quality of the herbs. Overall, this time-intensive and traditional process guarantees premium quality.
