Known as the Green Fairy, absinthe has a long history of attracting artists, writers and the occasional bit of controversy. Made in Provence by Distilleries et Domaines de Provence , Absente brings together wormwood, anise and aromatic herbs in a vivid green spirit with plenty of herbal character. Aniseed and liquorice lead the way, followed by fresh mint, citrus and warming spice. There's a bittersweet herbal edge beneath the sweetness, with a lingering, refreshing finish. Traditionally served diluted with ice-cold water, which turns the spirit cloudy, it also makes a useful addition to classic cocktails such as the Sazerac and Corpse Reviver No. 2. Show more
