Vintage absinthe is far rarer than ancient cognac, pre-prohibition bourbon, or
any other vintage spirit. Every surviving bottle is a precious relic. No more than
a few hundred people on earth have tasted even a sample of vintage absinthe
(most of them via this website), and only a few dozen have been privileged to
own one of the few remaining sealed bottles. We continually search throughout
France, Switzerland and Spain for these bottles - when we occasionally find
them, they sell immediately to clients on our waiting list. Click on the link to

NEW! The 4 Earliest Absinthe Movies 1899-1913 on DVD
Almost from the very outset, motion picture producers found a lucrative niche producing
films with an anti-alcohol message. As the much demonized focus of the French
temperance movement, absinthe was soon given a starring role as villain-in-chief.
After years of painstaking searching in libraries, archives and private collections in Italy,
France, Holland and the US, Oxygénée has tracked down some of these forgotten relics
from the dawn of the motion picture era - restored and digitally remastered, they are now
available here, in most cases for the first time since their initial release nearly a century ago.
