Yesterday I was fortunate enough to try a new verte absinthe distilled in Europe for the US market. It’s made with a wine based alcohol and traditional ingrediants, with a few secret ones as well, at 136 proof. It has a strong aroma and a very rich, full bodied flavor. This one has the most traditional vintage flavor of any US absinthes that I’ve tried. Over a year in the making, it has been approved for the US. They’re just waiting for approval of the label. My source tells me that it will (hopefully) be here in time for Christmas and it will be a medium priced one. I can’t say anymore than that at the moment, but I’ll post more details as they become available. Get ready folks, you’ll like this one!
