Episode 116 features Herbsaint. Bottled in 750ml at 50% ABV, or 100 proof and it retails for about $31.

Enjoy this episode with an Herbsaint Frappe, or any cocktail that calls for absinthe.

Herbsaint doesn't have it's own website, so here's the Sazerac listing: https://www.sazerac.com/our-brands/sazerac-brands/herbsaint.html

Brief Historical Timeline:

  • 1914-18 - World War I and J. Marion Legendre 's friend Reginal P. Parker learns of pastis while stationed in Marseille, France
  • 1920-33 - Post war, during Prohibition, Legendre and Parker make pastis in New Orleans
  • 1933 - Legendre introduces Legendre Absinthe in December, immediately following the repeal of Prohibition
  • 1934 - The Federal government forces Legendre to drop Absinthe from the name, Herbsaint is chosen as the replacement
  • 1949 - Legendre sells the brand and business to Sazerac & Company
  • 1950 - Sazerac changes the formulation, packaging and proof
  • 2009 - For the brand's 75th anniversary, Sazerac recreates the original recipe and resurrects the historical packaging, creating Legendre Herbsaint Original

Key Cocktails:

The Sazerac Cocktail is most widely cited, but it only uses Herbsaint as a rinse. Select an absinthe based cocktail as a better use for Herbsaint.
