La Maison Fontaine® Verte
Original price was: $139.00.$119.00Current price is: $119.00.
La Maison Fontaine® Verte, a newly crafted close relative to the Fontaine Blanche, is our take on the green fairy – la fee verte.
The Pontarlier-grown Grande Absinthe in combination with the natural herbal colouration creates a classic complex floral Verte with rich herbal & peppery notes. By adding chilled water to Fontaine Verte, a stimulating and refreshing drink is created with a vintage green louche. Some prefer a more intense flavour and sip it neat or pour it over ice.
Fontaine Verte is also a wonderfully versatile spirit that can be mixed into an array of sublime cocktails. We call this The Art of Imagination.

About brand
La Maison Fontaine® is an ultra-premium range of Absinthe products. Winner of Blanche Absinthe IWSC Gold and Best in Class. La Maison Fontaine®‘s range of Absinthe products are handcrafted amongst the beautiful Jura Mountains in Pontarlier France - a place renowned for its Absinthe history.
La Maison Fontaine® has been masterfully refined using a range of natural herbs. Some we’re keeping secret, others we’re happy to shout about – notably, our world-renowned Pontarlier-grown Grande Absinthe, which, together with green anise and fennel, is the “holy trinity” of any real absinthe.
La Maison Fontaine® Absinthe is distilled in the world’s oldest absinthe stills – handcrafted by our distiller in accordance with more than 100 years of tradition. Our distillery actually produced absinthe prior to the French absinthe ban in 1915.
You’ve heard about the Green Fairy – La Fee Verte. Our take on the green fairy is called Fontaine Verte. We did however start out with a white fairy – Fontaine Blanche. A clear absinthe. The Blanche style became increasingly popular after the absinthe ban in certain European countries, as it was easier for bootleg distillers and smugglers to hide a clear liquid from the authorities than a greenish one.

Fords Gin
There are countless brands that offer creative twists on the traditional gin formula: Hendricks, with cucumber and rose; Aviation, with lavender and sarsaparilla; The Botanist, with mint and chamomile. While all of these newer brands provide exciting variations on the typical gin flavor profile, their ability to deliver effectively in a wide range of cocktails is limited. Fords is the melding of both worlds, in that our high juniper content firmly establishes our credentials as a classic London dry, but has a unique blend of florals, spices, and citrus underneath it to give it a more current twist.
- Nose: Juniper, coriander & angelica up front with developing layers of citrus, jasmine & hints of vanilla in the background. Bright & expressive on the nose.
- Taste: Fresh, round citrus profiles on the opening with a light sweetness and blossoming bouquet of orris, cassia & grapefruit.
- Texture: Medium body, viscous & silky on the palate. Long, lingering mouthfeel.
- Intangibles: Impeccably balanced without anyone botanical dominating. Finishes dry with full-figured notes of grapefruit peel & long-lasting juniper impression.

Gin Mare
The authentic Mediterranean gin, Gin Mare, was created with unique and savoury botanicals including Arbequina olive from Spain, rosemary from Greece, thyme from Turkey, and Italian sweet basil. The four principal Mediterranean botanicals unite with more traditional botanicals including coriander, cardamom, citrus, and juniper berries to create a character that lends itself well to pairing with food.
Gin Mare is a distilled gin from the Mediterranean. It consists of nine botanicals which are macerated (40 days for the citrus botanicals and 12 hours for the remaining botanicals), before being distilled separately and then expertly blended, earning the notation “Collecion de Autor” on each bottle.
The bottle cap can also be used as a 50ml measuring cap.
TASTING NOTES
- Nose: Fragrant, aromatic herbaceous notes.
- Taste: Bold, rich flavours create a long, savoury and aromatic palate celebrating Mediterranean flavours. Unique savoury profile, making it perfect for pairing with food.
- Finish: Full bodied with a long lasting finish which marries the zesty and savoury flavours.
