The Awen Nature Distillery is located in La Bouëxière, in the heart of Brittany, a region renowned for its rich artisanal and natural heritage. Founded by Julien Fanny in 2013, this distillery embodies an eco-responsible approach combined with unique traditional know-how. The term "Nature" in its name reflects a deep commitment to sustainable and environmentally respectful production. The distillery favors the use of recyclable materials and innovative ecological packaging. Moreover, Julien personally delivers his spirits by bicycle within the Rennes metropolitan area, thus reducing the carbon footprint related to transport.
All spirits from the Awen Nature Distillery benefit from organic certification, guaranteeing superior quality and rigorous traceability. The aromatic and medicinal plants used mostly come from the immediate surroundings of the distillery, promoting a virtuous short supply chain and enhancing the Breton terroir. These plants are carefully macerated in organic grain alcohol for 48 hours before being precisely distilled in traditional stills. Absolutely no artificial coloring or preservatives are added, thus preserving the purity and authenticity of the flavors.
The production of Awen Nature spirits is based on ancestral recipes and artisanal methods passed down through the centuries. The labels, designed by the renowned artist Gwladys Rose, are inspired by Breton Celtic legends and depict fairy figures such as nymphs and fairies, symbols of perfect harmony between humanity and nature. This original visual identity adds an artistic dimension to each bottle, enhancing their unique character.
The Absinthe Verte La Botaniste embodies the result of extensive research conducted by creator Julien Fanny to faithfully recreate absinthes made before their prohibition in 1915. This exclusive recipe wonderfully restores the subtle balance of wild plants, with dominant herbaceous notes from hyssop, calamint, and wild thyme, bringing freshness and aromatic complexity. Additionally, a delicate touch of anise, fennel, and star anise gives this absinthe a slight aniseed nuance, an essential characteristic for discerning enthusiasts. Both authentic and innovative, Absinthe Verte La Botaniste is a must-have for connoisseurs of exceptional natural spirits.
