Sadly the company died following the ban of #absinthe & prohibition. A Boston-based cocktail historian found the company's hand-written recipe book & collectors found an original bottle. With the help of #ClaudeAlainBugnon, the distiller of @LaClandestine, Butterfly is now back!

#ButterflyAbsinthe is now in the USA, Japan, and many other countries in Europe and Australasia. We recommend Butterfly #Absinthe served the classic way and in many cocktails, both old and new. We especially love the #BloodyFairy!

With translation by Google: “It's a bright yellow-green absinthe. A refreshing flavor of anise and wormwood. The bitterness is strong, but you can feel the richness and umami. Amazing milky when mixed with water 🥰” Thank you, @satomimineko. Kanpai!
【アブサン・薬草系リキュール】 バタフライ クラシック アブサン(Butterfly Classic Absinthe) 明るい黄緑色のアブサンですね。アニスとニガヨモギのさわやかな風味。苦味は強いですがしっかりしたコク・旨味を感じます。水割りにするとすごいミルキー🥰
