The secret garden of the Green Fairy presents the plants (perennials) that are used for the production of absinthe: angelica, fennel, lemon balm, peppermint, veronica, coriander, not to mention small and large absinthes, as well as a collection of sagebrush.
In early June, the garden plants are vigorous. This is the time of year when they generously offer their foliage and scents.
You will also discover the trawl in which the plants dry after harvest in summer, for future distillation. You will also be able to see the insect hotel with its «tenants» and their beneficial effects in the fight against aphids.
Throughout the weekend, you can also taste absinthe at the Paul Devoille distillery, adjoining the garden, according to a ritual that sharpens the senses as well as the taste buds.
Visiting the secret garden of the Green Fairy is to immerse yourself in the know-how related to the manufacture of absinthe.Alcohol abuse is dangerous to health. Consume in moderation.
