- The recipe of Un Emile 68 was modified in October 2005 to make this absinthe more competitive against new products arriving on the market. The improvement is undeniable.
- Un Emile 68 is bottled in a dark bottle to prevent the sunlight from spoiling the green colour.
- Un Emile 68 participated to the 2007 Absinthiades in Pontarlier, where it was awarded the eighth place.
“Les fils d'Emile Pernot” distillery was founded in 1890 in Pontarlier, France, by Emile Pernot. In 1910, the distillery produced approximately 450 hectolitres; that is not surprising, because in those days, the consumption of absinthe was making good progress.
When “Fee Verte” was banned in 1915, the distillery turned its production to other products such as those made from aniseed, fruit brandies or alcohol made from gentian.
In 2001 the small distillery started to reproduce absinthe with “Un Emile” from an old family recipe.
In 2005, the distillery was sold to François Thevenin, who has since developed the firm to add a touch of modernity.
A year later, at the end of 2006, François Thevenin bought the Klainguer distillery, also situated in Pontarlier, and formed the Pernot – Klainguer distillery.
- At first, savour Un Emile 68 with half a piece of sugar. Then add more or less according to your taste.
- For one measure of absinthe (3cl), add 2 to 5 measure of fresh water.

Added on the : 11/08/2013 EnglishIt is a misconception that this is a beginners absinthe. The term "beginners absinthe" is in general of little sense. An absinthe is an absinthe. However it is simple and very herbal, giving a good impression of both the typical "Emil Pernot note" along with the Pontarlier wormwood. During time it has undergone changes, but in its current form I find it to be a very good absinthe with a high level of quality/price ration as well. The anise content in the 68% version is limited as with some other absinthes in the Pernot range. Therefore they are very sensitive to the addition of water. In order to enjoy this absinthe at its fullest, I recommend icecold water, a sloow drip and not diluting it too much. If you add water too quickly, it has a tendency to be too sharp and boozy. For some reason the 45% version seems less sensitive, perhaps due to a higher water content.
I believe this absinthe is a alltime classic, and the improvements do that it deserves respect. It is a good start absinthe if you are not that familiar with Emile Pernot.
Un Emile comes in a 45% version too that is very suitable for cocktail bars that want to work with the clean sharp, notes from this absinthe. It makes a tremendeous "green beast" (1 part lime, 1 part simple syrup, 1 part absinthe, 3 parts of water, cucumber lumbs, ice and shake well)

Good. I appreciated the full taste and the color... It isn't been really simple to get a good louche and to find the perfect quantity of water. I suggest to do not put more than 4 parts of water.

Good product for a novice who wants to try real absinthe. Produced in according to the traditional methods, this absinthe has a pale natural yellow-green colour; louche is pale too.
Wormwood and anise are the dominant flavours.
Nothing of outstanding; antique charm.

It is a nice absinthe to start with indeed, but I think it's missing a bit of character.
