A long-term favourite of absinthe lovers, La Clandestine is h&-crafted in Couvet, Switzerland: the village where absinthe was born in the 1790's. Based on a 1935 recipe when absinthe was produced 'underground' in Switzerl&, La Clandestine is distilled by Claude-Alain Bugnon, the only distiller to win five Golden Spoons at the French Absinthiades, sometimes known as the ' Absinthe Oscars.' The 'terroir' is very important for Claude-Alain: most of the plants used in La Clandestine grow locally in meadows in the foothills of the Alps. With a recipe made up of more than 10 plants, it has, at first nosing, a wonderful richness of aromas, followed by a lingering light bitterness. Its distiller prefers to drink it with 3/4 parts of chilled water (but not with sugar). Mixologists who have tried many absinthes find La Clandestine to be 'almost uniquely versatile, ' working well in both classic & modern absinthe cocktails. Like all Swiss absinthe, La Clandestine is distilled (absinthes from other countries may just be 'cold mixed'), contains no artificial colours & has no added sugar. ...
