When drinking Absente, anything goes (well, almost anything): Absente can be poured over shavings or ice cubes. Those who like a strong sensation drink it straight. Those who prefer a savory and bitter taste can simply add cold water to Absente. Traditionalists carefully follow a time-honored practice: place a sugar cube on the slotted spoon of an absinthe spoon and balance it over the glass. Then slowly pour in the water. This dissolves the sugar, and Absente turns opalescent green.

Color

The color of the spirit is bright green.

Scent

The subtle aromas of anise, mint and spices in the spirits and essences give Absente its balance, sophistication, freshness and its amazing ability to linger on the palate.

Taste

Absinthe is very distinctive. This is a clever blend of absinthe, wormwood, green anise and balsam: delicate, sweet and slightly spicy.
