Absinthe Vieux Pontarlier is an Absinthe Verte from France. The recipe consists of locally grown wormwood (artemisia absinthium), Spanish green anise seed, Provençal fennel and a variety of further aromatic herbs and spices. Of course there is no sugar added - its refreshing taste is obtained entirely from the combination of plants and the distiller’s skill. In the glass, Vieux Pontarlier louches from a bright green color to an opalescent white. The aromas evolve after pouring, starting with bright anise and developing heady alpine herb notes with savory, lightly mentholated hints of wormwood.This Absinthe won the Double Gold Medal, Best in Class, on the San Francisco Spirits Competition 2008.
