La Crapule 50%

La Crapule 50% is a barrel-aged absinthe distilled by Distillerie Stillerie in the Val-de-Travers. Following traditional distillation, it undergoes maturation in oak, allowing time and wood to refine its structure and deepen its aromatic expression. At 50% ABV, this expression reveals a rounded and composed profile. Anise remains present, now framed by subtle woody tones, gentle oxidative nuances, and softened herbal layers. The barrel aging brings texture and integration, lending warmth and length without masking the botanical core. Prepared neat or on ice, it develops a rich and layered louche, revealing the dialogue between distillation and maturation. La Crapule stands as a mature and structured interpretation of absinthe, where wood and terroir meet in balanced continuity.
