Absinthe of the month
Served drop by drop with cool water from the fountain, it opens and clouds. Come and discover it at the museum's tasting bar.
In Couvet, at the historic cradle of absinthe, Gaudentia Persoz distils within a family continuity rooted in clandestine times. The first legally recognized female absinthe distiller in Switzerland, she carries forward a recipe inherited from her husband’s grandmother — a formula born of prohibition that became the foundation of the house.
Discover the distillerA Val-de-Travers absinthe verte of assertive balance, where vegetal richness and anise unfold within a broad and controlled structure.
A characteristic herbal profile in which anise leads and intertwines with a rich vegetal array, supported by delicate, well-integrated bitterness. The palate opens with confident clarity, then evolves fluidly toward a dry and balanced finish that invites attentive appreciation of its botanical complexity.
Slowly diluted with iced water to allow the louche to form naturally. Best served without sugar to preserve the balance and vegetal character. Intended for focused, unhurried tasting. Suitable for experienced drinkers and classic absinthe service.
Fine salted biscuits act as a neutral palate companion, their restrained salinity cleansing residual flavors between sips. A simple yet purposeful way to maintain clarity and precision during a focused absinthe tasting.
