From the early days of absinthe production, the fashion was for a lightly colored absinthe, using natural plant-based ingredients (though sometimes chemical ones too), rather than the clear, white absinthe.
In his late 18th-century ledger, Abram-Louis Perrenoud (Couvet, Val-de-Travers, Switzerland) left the first written record of coloring the spirit, advising that for the "color" of 18 pots of eau-de-vie, one should add a handful of small wormwood and an equal amount of hyssop.
In 1875, Jacob Frédéric Kübler perfected a new recipe for an entirely natural Green Absinthe Extract whose color would remain more stable over time. Kübler Verte Suisse 72% vol. was born! This absinthe, like its uncolored counterpart, won gold medals at the 1883 Swiss National Exhibition in Zurich.
Kübler Absinthe (commonly known as the Green Fairy or the Blue Fairy) had been distilled by the Kübler family since 1863 in the Val-de-Travers (Neuchâtel, Switzerland), the historical birthplace of this noble product. Prohibited since October 7, 1910, this legendary and divine beverage has risen from the ashes following a decision by the Swiss parliament. The first official distillation of absinthe took place in Môtiers, the main town of the Val-de-Travers (Neuchâtel, Switzerland), after more than 94 years of prohibition.
Today, Yves Kübler, great-grandson of the founder of the Kübler brand, is the first to offer you this authentic product, in accordance with the original recipe and family tradition.
“Kübler Absinthe” is distilled in the purest traditions, its unique taste is obtained by distilling a subtle blend of aromatic plants, Grand Absinthe, sourced exclusively from the Val-de-Travers region, and alcohol, which gives it a special flavor.
