The Product
Crème d’Absinthe La Clandestine 15%
La Clandestine Crème d’Absinthe is a Swiss liqueur crafted by the Distillerie Artemisia in Couvet, offering a refined interpretation of the Green Fairy in a creamy and composed form. Inspired by the iconic La Clandestine Blanche, it translates absinthe’s botanical character into a more rounded and gastronomic expression.
Made from fresh Swiss egg yolks, sugar, and absinthe, this liqueur reveals a smooth and velvety texture. Notes of white chocolate and vanilla unfold with precision, while the herbal and anise elements of absinthe remain clearly defined, bringing balance and structure to the composition rather than sweetness alone.
At around 15% ABV, it can be enjoyed neat, over ice, or used with restraint in coffee, hot chocolate, or refined desserts. Controlled and elegant, it offers a more articulate reading of absinthe, where texture, aroma, and botanical clarity are held in careful equilibrium.
Behind the Bottle
Heritage
Rooted in one of the valley’s most exacting distilling practices, this absinthe reflects a house where precision is not aesthetic but discipline. Botanical selection and distillation are conducted with measured rigor, yielding a structure that speaks of mastery rather than interpretation.
Character
Velvety texture, soft and ample on the palate, with a finish gently marked by the signature of absinthe. Balance favors finesse over heaviness.
Ritual
Intended for measured use in gastronomy, where its vegetal character enhances sauces, desserts, or reductions with precision.
Gourmet Pairings
Harmonizes gracefully with fruit-based desserts and fresh seasonal fruits. Its subtle sweetness and botanical accents elevate natural flavors without overpowering them.
Interpretation
La Clandestine Crème d’Absinthe offers a refined and structured interpretation of the absinthe universe. Its velvety texture, supported by notes of vanilla and white chocolate, places it within a high-end gourmand register. Enjoyed neat, over ice, or used with precision in coffee, hot chocolate, or desserts, it reveals a subtle vegetal signature—elegant, balanced, and distinctly absinthe.
