Absinthe L'Enjoleuse is a Absinthe From the "Les Parisiennes" series. This absinthe collection is based on historical originals in both its recipe and bottle design. Enjoleuse is based on a handwritten recipe from a book by Edouard Pernod. As in the 19th century, aromatic wine alcohol is used as the base for distilling the herbs. After distillation and coloring with natural herbs (no artificial coloring!), this absinthe is aged in an oak barrel. This process gives the absinthe its additional complexity.
When ice-cold water is added, Désirée becomes particularly cloudy. This intense cloudiness tells the connoisseur, even before the first sip, that they can expect a very strong absinthe. Upon taking that first sip, one is truly overwhelmed by the aromas; this absinthe is so intensely flavorful. Subtle hints of fresh anise emerge first, followed by a floral note of wormwood. The finish reveals the woody notes from barrel aging. All in all, L'Enjoleuse is a floral and intense version of the Green Fairy. We recommend it to absinthe enthusiasts who already have some experience with the Green Fairy.
Drink L'Enjoleuse Absinthe
L'Enjoleuse is an exceptionally strong absinthe. Therefore, you should prepare it with plenty of water. We recommend a ratio of one part absinthe to three to four parts water. Preparation should follow the classic French absinthe ritual. That is, with an Absinthe spoon topped with a sugar cube. The sweetness of the sugar complements the woody notes of the absinthe beautifully, further enhancing its aroma. Lightly sugared, L'Enjoleuse is almost reminiscent of a "spirited" praline. Delicious!
