Tasting note

Bourgeois is one of the signature absinthes of Distillerie Les Fils d'Emile Pernot, a distilled absinthe whose recipe existed long before absinthe was banned. Serve it the traditional way, lengthened with cold water to taste.

The label. The bottle is known for its label by the Mourgue brothers, which pictures a black cat lapping absinthe from a glass. The scene of table, glass and carafe echoes the one Charles Maire drew for Pernod Fils.

Character. Sweet, led by anise and naturally green. Its relatively mild, subtle taste makes it an easy first absinthe, while still giving seasoned drinkers plenty to enjoy. See the rest of our absinthe collection.

Guide: How to Drink Absinthe: The Ritual, the Kit, and the Australian Rules

Absinthe is legal in Australia, it does not make you hallucinate, and the ritual is chemistry rather than theatre.
