Pernod was the first Absinthe distillery and was started way back in 1805.
Pernod is actually a successor of absinthe, the potent liquor popular in the 19th century. The exotic bouquet, when tasted neat, is potent and bittersweet; with the addition of water, it turns milky-opaque and has a long, licorice-like finish.
In 1805, Henri Louis Pernod founded Pernod Fils, France’s first distillery. After 200 years, Pernod continues to distill absinthe the traditional way, remaining faithful to its 19th century roots. Inspired by the original recipe that made a name for the House of Pernod, this sugar-free anise spirit has a thujone content in conformity with the legislation in force. A unique flavour, to relive the Paris of La Belle Epoque.
Building on its know-how, in 2001 Pernod launched a new anise spirit: Pernod with absinthe plant extracts. Inspired by the original recipe that made a name for the House of Pernod in the 19th century, this sugar-free anise spirit with an alcohol content of 68° has a thuyone content in conformity with the legislation in force. A unique flavour, to relive the Paris of La Belle Epoque.
Pernod Absinthe won the Gold Medal in the 2014 International Review of Spirits Award and Best in Category in the 2015 Lost Angeles International Spirits Competition.
