Geinoz La Fée pas chier 69% is a bold verte absinthe from the Val-de-Travers, distilled by Philippe Geinoz. At 69% ABV, it delivers a structured profile of anise, deep herbal notes, and balanced bitterness.

La Fée Pas Chier plays on a mischievous twist of absinthe tradition:
While La Fée Verte—the Green Fairy—is the legendary muse of absinthe, this name echoes a similar-sounding French expression meaning “don’t bother me.”

With a wink, the distiller describes it as a spirit of quiet independence—one to enjoy when you wish the world would slow down and give you a moment to yourself.

Rumor even has it that sharing a glass is an excellent way to restore peace: offer it to those who insist on interrupting, and they may soon find themselves pleasantly distracted.

Derived from the same base recipe as the other absinthes from La Chaleureuse, it stands out with a more pronounced presence of grand wormwood, bringing intensity and character while retaining a surprising smoothness — an audacious yet indulgent expression.
