Butterfly is the first pre-ban absinthe of American origin to return to the USA. It was originally made in Boston circa 1902 at the Dempsey Distillery on Merrimac Street. The brand was resurrected by Boston-based absinthe historian, Brian Fernald.

Butterfly is produced by Claude-Alain Bugnon, Europe’s most famous absinthe distiller. More than 60 production steps are required to make Butterfly over a three day period from plant selection through maceration and distillation, to application of signed, dated and numbered labels. Plants include locally grown grande wormwood, petite wormwood, hyssop, melissa and peppermint and the finest imported anise, star anise, fennel and citrus. Butterfly combines the best of both worlds: American heritage and recipe with Swiss “know how” and ingredients.

Flavors of anise, fennel and the slight bitterness of wormwood with citrus and mint notes.

130 Proof - 65% ABV


Butterfly is one of only two absinthes to achieve an A Star rating from Drinkhacker and one of only four US available absinthes to achieve a 5 Star rating in Difford's Guide. Wine Enthusiast rated Butterfly 91/100 and listed it as a Top 100 Spirit of 2015.
