Germain-Robin Absinthe 750 ml
ABSINTHE SUPERIEURE
Crispin Cain’s craft-method absinthe doesn’t require the sugar cube routine, which was created for horrible stuff that needs to have its harshness concealed.
Former Germain-Robin apprentice Crispin Cain of Greenway Distillery hand-distills apple-honey meade using the antique Germain-Robin cognac still, infusing it with wormwood, rose geranium, lemon balm, fennel, hyssop, lemon verbena, star anise, mint, and lemon peel. This transparent absinthe is subtle, complex, absolutely beautiful. Five stars – Paul Pacult
Why is it clear instead of green? Almost all green absinthes – including several erstwhile craft products – contain food coloring, because it is very difficult to produce a clean absinthe with enough residue from the herbal infusion to provide an authentic green color. Scarce.
