Description:

Absinthe rose to great popularity as an alcoholic drink in late 19th- and early 20th-century in France, particularly among Parisian artists and writers (Charles Baudelaire, Ernest Hemingway, Edgar Allan Poe, etc.). Owing in part to its association with bohemian culture, the consumption of Absinthe was opposed by social conservatives and prohibitionists. Absinthe traditionally has a natural green colour but may also be colourless. It is commonly referred to in historical literature as “la fée verte” (the green fairy).

This is Australia’s first premium Absinthe – Multiple distilled spirit with added Australian Botanical infusions. It presents with a mix of Aniseed and Lemon Myrtle, China Aniseed, Elderflower, Gentian, Fennel seed, Hyssop and of course the infamous Wormwood.

A big anise focussed entry leads into a hot, prickly mid palate that numbs the lips and stuns the tongue. Anise and liquorice strap flavours emerge through the alcohol. Finishes dry, slightly bitter and liquorice like with the heat taking some time to dissipate.

Absinthe is traditionally drunk diluted, and there is no more lavish and beautiful way to dilute the drink than with an Absinthe fountain. Place the spoon over a filled glass of absinthe with the sugar cube on it and sit it underneath one of the taps on the fountain. Slowly drip water over the sugar until it has dissolved. You should look to have about four to six parts water per one part absinthe.

Delicious! Quite soft - lots of herb tones. Lovely afternoon drink on a sunny day... also probably on a cold rainy day if it lasts that long!

The vapours of this amazing distillat as they are freeing themselves out of the glass after purring the water over sugar, it’s something beautiful and timeless, it’s easy to drift off into a cafe in Paris in 1900, and it prepares for what’s next. It’s a great absinthe full botanical and complex in the mouth. I recommend it fully.

Absolutely delicious. I love the distinct Australian flavors and the beautiful floral smells that blossom as I prepare it.
