Good evening fellow
Absintheurs!
My
name is Alain Diable. You can call me Alain.
You may know me as a frequent visitor of the Moulin Vert, the notorious
Absinthe bar of Montmartre. But I want make sure you know that I am
also a sexual dynamo, a promoter of all things bohemian, a hater of
the bourgeoisie and an devoted ALANDIA Absintheur!
Last
weekend I was invited to join the jury of the Absinthe Fair Absinthiades
in Pontarlier. On this event the best French Absinthes are awarded
by a group of experienced Absintheurs. My favorite was Absinthe Partisane,
a Pontarlienne Absinthe with a very nice wormwood bouquet. The patch
is limited to 1000 bottles, so I already filled my stock and took
some bottles home to Paris... ;-) Here is my little review,

Absinthe History:
ALANDIAs
Partisane Absinthe is made from the 2004 wormwood harvest from Pontarlier.
The 2004 patch was distilled by a local experienced distillery in
cooperation with ALANDIA. The patch is limited to 1000 bottles. Therefore
each bottle is unique and due to the natural limit of the 2004 harvest
this Absinthe will not be available at any point later. The recipe
is based on only a few herbs to set the focus on the Absinthe bouquet.
You will experience a strong Absinthe with a note of caramel and nutmeg.
Partisane
won the silver medal on the Absinthe fair Absinthiades 2005 and the
bronze medal in 2006 in Pontarlier, France.
We
recommend to serve Partisane with two sugar cubes and two parts cold
water.
