Here we have a very decent blanche in the typical French, not Swiss tradition.
The product is clean, robust and herbaceous. The louche is slow-forming but getting the nice opacity. Aroma is very herbal, slightly medicinal. The taste is very complex, layering with noticeable wormwood, pontica, some hyssop. At 68% it is a pleasant addition to a few remaining French blanches and in case of Lemercier, it is a step further than Abisinthes.
Worth trying and worth drinking, not to be confused with Triple or Republique
