With a pickaxe (La Pioche) they dig out the Genianroot in the French Jura. It's a hell of a job and demands a lot of force and endurance! The root is washed with water, cut into small pieces and then macerated for quite a while in base alcohol. After the distillation they add citrus fruits and a bit of sugar. Relativly low in alcohol this is consumed as an aperitif and we recommend to try it out instead of Vermouth - goes very good!

When Francois and Mayra Aymonier fulfilled their dream of Buying and running a farm fell to the French jury The idea of distilling absinthe is still a long way off. As they found that a wide variety of herbs do extremely well on their farm flourish, one thing led to another. Of course it wasn't easy to fulfill all the customs formalities, but finally one thing worked out day off. Absinthe from our own production. Only the anise is made from the relate to the Mediterranean region, everything else is planted, cared for, harvested, dried and crushed for distillation.
When you meet the young married couple, you feel the authentic Spirit and the love that is put into all products. Then you come in the combustion chamber in the low basement of the courtyard, you can see a tiny one copper kiln. Thoughts wander to a time when only Switzerland, just a few kilometers away, is lively in this ambience burned black - but that was a long time ago!
In addition to the various types of absinthe, Francois also produces a a few regional liqueurs and an aniseed which we will soon have will offer.
