It was used to treat a wide range of conditions, including jaundice, menstrual pain, anemia and bad breath. Over the centuries, absinthe gradually evolved from medicine to recreational drink, with the recipe we think of today as modern absinthe emerging in apothecaries in Switzerland in the late 1700s.
Absinthe
Supplier: 1001 herbes
1001 Herbes starts with the idea of cultivating plants to produce essential oils. The first crops of thyme, sage and mint were born in 2013 on a small plot in Avusy. After encountering the numerous difficulties associated with the production of essential oils in Switzerland, Camille decided to offer her fresh plants to the market and to restaurateurs. The interest is there and the adventure begins!
Endowed with great curiosity and driven by the desire to diversify his crops, Camille takes steps with several Geneva producers, farmers and winegrowers to obtain a small piece of land. Not without difficulties, his project finally resonated with Yves Batardon who offered him a plot of land in Soral. It is from this moment that one thing led to another and the cultures multiplied and diversified.Distance from Saint Jean, Geneva
