Multiple gold-pruned ABSINTH from Magdeburg: Absinthe 66 from Abtshof Magdeburg is one of the most famous German absinthe — distilled according to the traditional recipe with anise, fennel, wormwood, melissa and coriander. Multiple Gold Award at the International Spirits Competition (ISW). Each pharmacist bottle is elaborately hand-labelled and sealed with a seal — a real unique item with 66 % vol.
Elegant gift with wow factor: the robust gift packaging with scratch-resistant lacquer surface makes the starter set an immediate gift – without further wrapping. Depending on the exposure to light, dancing butterflies are visible on the surface. Ideal for birthdays, Christmas, anniversaries or as a souvenir for absinthe beginners and collectors. Contents: drink, glasses, spoons, sugar and matches - all in one box.
Complete set for immediate enjoyment: the Absinthe 66 starter set contains everything you need for the classic absinthe ritual — 1 x Absinthe 66 (0.5 l, 66 % vol.) In the iconic apothecary bottle, 2 stylish absinthe glasses, 2 classic absinthe spoons, 6 sugar cubes and matches in absinthe 66 design. No separate accessories needed - just unpack and dip.
Classic ritual or bohemian fire spectacle: celebrate absinthe in two ways. In the French ritual, let ice cold water flow into the absinthe over a sugar cube on the spoon - and watch the fascinating Louche. During the Bohemian ritual, the sugar cube is soaked with absinthe, lit and caramelised - before it drips liquid into the glass. Both methods belong to the legend. The set provides the accessories for both.
CULTURE, MYTH AND OVER 100 YEARS OF TRADITION: Absinthe was the drink of bohemian — by Van Gogh, Oscar Wilde and Edgar Allan Poe. Forbidden for a long time, cult today. The Abtshof Magdeburg has been burning spirits since 1924 and has made the Green Fairy salonable again with Absinthe 66 With this starter set, you will not only experience a spirit - you will become part of a legend. Only for people over 18 years old.

★ The green colour of the absinthe is based exclusively on dyeing herbs (no dye is used, so it was then and so it should still be today)
★ Strong68 uses a traditional formula with wormwood (artemisia absinthium) and anise. Accordingly, the absinthe also contains thujone. However, thujone is only one - often overrated - property of absinthe. Much more important are quality features such as a classic composition of the formula, the quality of the herbs, the natural colouring without dyes and the distillation as a manufacturing process.
★ Strong68 is bottled in a corked bottle of 0.5 litres and 68% alcohol. This is the classic alcohol content of original Absinthe from the 19th Century This high percentage is needed for the perfect preparation of absinthe according to the traditional absinthe ritual with sugar and ice cold water. In addition, the high alcohol content stabilises the green colour of the absinthe.
★ Strong68 is a classic absinthe made according to a 19th century recipe. The absinthe is distilled, i.e. not a simple macerate or industrial oil mix. Its high quality has been awarded several times (gold medal at the Concours International de Lyon 2026, silver medals at the Craft Spirits Award CSB 2026 and International Spirits Award ISW 2025)
This absinthe is made in a French Family distillery from 1859. The wormwood is traditionally grown in the fields of the distillery, which guarantees the best quality. Overall, our award-winning Strong68 Absinthe offers you an authentic absinthe experience like in the 19th century.
