It was tough finding a lot of information about this absinthe. Even the AbsinthExplore site I got it from didn't have a main page for it.

Color: No visible defect.

Louche: quite quick with a nice layering effect.

Aroma: Wormwood mintiness and fresh. Like a mountain stream.

Flavor: Quite thin and watery at 4:1 with not a lot of flavor at all. At 3:1, some more wormwood pops out, but it's still rather basic. I gave it a 2 because I'd say it's unbalanced and lacking.

Finish: Practically no finish at 4:1. At 3:1 you get some decent wormwood. In fact, you taste more of it in the finish than in the actual action of drinking.

Overall: It's a rather basic and very lightly flavored absinthe. If you get it, don't go above 3:1. In fact, maybe try 2:1 first.
