| Absinthe Clandestine |
Absinthe 'Clandestine' is an authentic La Bleue made in Couvet, Val-de-Travers, Switzerland, the
birthplace of absinthe.
Its creator Claude-Alain Bugnon was the first clandestine distiller granted legal status by the
Swiss government in the spring of 2005. For years he had been responsible for a certain quantity
of bootlegged absinthe that brought so much attention and status to this small region. His
'Clandestine' has been and is still considered by many to be the best Swiss La Bleue available
today.
Clandestine is fresh as an Alpine meadow with bright anise, wildflower and wormwood aromas,
a touch of honey and a refreshing, long taste. This absinthe is left uncolored and clear (the bottle
is blue) and will take on a milkly opalescence when cold water is added. It is said that Swiss
"La Bleue" style absinthes got their name because blue reflections can sometimes be seen in
the bright white cloudiness of the louche.

Claude Alain's custom designed distilling apparatus
at his premises in Couvet, a former butcher shop!.
The alambics each have a capacity of 145 litres, and
produce 95 litres of finished absinthe. They are
single-walled, rather than duplicating the bain-marie
system more commonly used in France.
Claude-Alain feels that the fiercer heat gives better
extraction of the herbs.
