In the Netherlands there has been only the distillery Helfrich, which produced two excellent Absinthes until Serge Helfrich ceased production. Due to the great disappointment and at the insistence of the Absintheurs, the production has now been re-established by Ton Akveld. He uses the original still and recipe of Helfrich to make the Akveld's Absinthes. The quality is fully consistent with the original.
