Maison Perrotte Pineapple with Larusée Verte Absinthe

Maison Perrotte’s Pineapple with Larusée Verte Absinthe is a striking fusion of bright fruit and refined botanical notes. The pineapple takes centre stage first—juicy, golden, and bursting with natural sweetness. Its flavour is tropical but elegant, with a lively acidity that keeps each spoonful refreshing rather than sugary.

Then the magic happens: the absinthe reveals itself gently, adding a whisper of anise, fennel, and green herbal freshness. It never overwhelms—the balance is measured and intentional. Instead, the absinthe deepens the preserve’s aroma, lending a faintly mysterious, almost perfumed quality that transforms it from a simple jam into something far more intriguing.

The texture is lush and spoonable, with tender pineapple pieces suspended in a glossy, fragrant syrup. Every bite shifts playfully between sunshine-bright fruit and cool botanical complexity. It’s a preserve for those who enjoy flavour that surprises—familiar yet adventurous, comforting yet elevated.

Vibrant, aromatic, and wonderfully versatile—perfect for brunch, baking, and cheese boards.

Maison Perrotte brings this spirit into a tropical preserve, allowing the botanical elegance of absinthe to intertwine with the juicy brightness of pineapple. The result is a jam that feels both playful and poetic: the exuberance of tropical fruit meeting the quiet sophistication of French herbal liqueur. It’s a jar that invites curiosity and rewards every spoonful with depth, personality, and artistry.
