Appearance: A fairly light green once it's in the glass, but it's a decently old sample. Once I get a new bottle I may adjust for this.
Louche: Pale, pale green with some almost buttery golds and hints of blues. This is just the right thickness.
Aroma: Floral and sweet, while being fresh, cool, and fragrant. VERY inviting.
Flavor: Cool and smooth, with a "petal"-like taste. Also reminiscent of fresh cut herbs; green and spicy.
Finish: There's a lovely mouth-numbing effect and the diminishing flavors are extremely refreshing.
Overall: This is a really excellent, impressive absinthe.
