Haribo gummi bears have always been my favourite sweets, ever since my childhood, and later they were a great consolation under my pillow in strange cities. But enough of these personal stories.

Science and technology have now created a true beauty in heavenly green. The two bartenders, or maybe rather mad scientists (positively speaking) Sam Mason and Eben Freeman made my dream come true and transformed absinthe, a (possibly hallucinogenic) liquor, into a lovely edible (!) gummi bear! Now this cute little sweet is not only soothing but contains 85% absinthe. My friendly gummi bear will bring me a green fairy and make me a poet like Rimbaud or a painter like Toulouse-Lautrec…
