Description
Based on a traditional classic absinthe verte recipe, this beautiful aromatic absinthe has been created from alcoholic tinctures and distillates of wormwood, hyssop and fennel combined with infusions of fragrant African botanicals used in traditional African remedies, including artemesia afra, the African wormwood, which has long been used to treat an astonishing range of ailments.
The resulting spirit is a slightly bitter, refreshing herbal aperitif with smooth aniseed flavours lifted by notes of citrus and mint, with a characteristic green colour that comes entirely from an infusion of natural herbs.
‘Umphuphi’ – The Dreamer – is a truly African expression of the absinthe style, but best enjoyed in the traditional French tradition, diluted with iced water poured over a sugar cube until the green fades to a shimmering cloudy lemon-coloured elixir. Or get creative and experiment with one of our amazing absinthe cocktails. Enjoy!
