Pernod Absinthe is a legendary, high-proof herbal liqueur produced in France and renowned for its complex flavours and historical significance. With an alcohol content of 68% vol., this absinthe is particularly potent and intense, making it an exclusive treat for absinthe lovers and connoisseurs. Pernod Absinthe is made from a variety of herbs and plant extracts, including wormwood, aniseed and fennel. These ingredients give the absinthe its characteristic flavour, which is both spicy and refreshing.

The high alcohol content and the complex blend of herbs make Pernod Absinthe a unique experience. Traditionally, it is diluted with water and filtered through sugar cubes, which creates the ‘louche’ effect – a milky cloudiness that forms when water is added to the absinthe. This is an important part of the traditional absinthe ritual. Pernod Absinthe has a long history and was a particularly popular drink amongst artists and poets in France during the 19th and early 20th centuries.

Pernod Absinthe is traditionally diluted with water and served over a sugar cube in an absinthe glass. This method allows the complex flavours of the absinthe to unfold fully. Alternatively, it can also be used as a base for cocktails such as the classic Absinthe Frappé, which is known for its refreshing and slightly tart flavour. Absinthe pairs well with dark chocolate, smoked meats or strong cheeses.
