Absente 55° with Van Gogh Spoon 750mL
Absente uses only the highest quality artisinal distillation methods and ingredients, including anise, star anise, balm, peppermint and a full measure of the legendary and notorious botanical wormwood, also known as Artemisia Absinthium.
How do you drink ABSENTE?
The armoise (Artemisia Vulgaris) infusion gives Absente its structure.
The alcoholate and essences add subtile flavors of anise, mint and spices, giving Absente its balance, elegance, freshness and surprising length of flavor.
For drinking Absente there are no rules (or very few):
You can pour the Absente onto crushed ice or ice cubes.
If you like strong drinks then you can drink it neat.
If you prefer it slightly bitter and less sweet, simply add fresh water to your Absente.
Those nostalgic for the past can practice the ritual of bygone days by placing a sugar cube onto an absinthe spoon placed on the rim of the glass and slowing pour in the water until it melts the sugar and turns the Absente an opalescent green.
Absente can also be flambéed and added to cocktails.
