AUSTIN OSMAN SPARE ABSINTHE:
ARTWORK FROM OSSIAN BROWN'S COLLECTION
Ossian Brown is very pleased to announce that the remarkable and haunting pastel work 'Astral Body and Ghost' created by the artist Austin Osman Spare in 1946, has been chosen from Ossian's personal collection of the artists original work, to accompany a unique distillation of Absinthe prepared by Oliver Matter for the Swiss company Absinthe-Brevans. The edition, entitled Absinthe Brevans A.O. Spare, will be released on Ossian's birthday, the 3rd of April.
Absinthe Brevans A.O. Spare is the second Absinthe in the Brevans series, and is dedicated to the English painter and visionary Austin Osman Spare, who died in 1956. The first batch was distilled on Spare's birthday (Dec. 30). The basis for the formula was taken from the 1897 book La fabrication des liqueurs by J. De Brevans. The formula has been slightly modified to gain a nicely balanced distillate. Oliver Matter uses locally sourced botanicals cultivated to eco-standards, or equally high-quality herbs such as Anise. No sugar or any other artificial substances are used. Matter uses herbs such as small wormwood, hyssop and others for colouring Absinthe. Absinthe-Brevans press release states: "The result is a pretty complex yet smooth, harmonic and mellow Absinthe. We’re sure Austin Osman Spare would have been proud of it and most likely enjoyed the Absinthe himself a lot. We would like to thank Ossian Brown for letting us use one of Spare's most important paintings Astral Body and Ghost for this Absinthe!"
Both Ossian and Stephen feel that the picture is the perfect image to accompany this unique distillation. Raise a glass to ZOS!
