This was my first taste of absinthe, and I am more than intrigued. I became quite excited when I first smelled it. It was a light green color, and louched well, I think. It didn't quite turn entirely opaque. I didn't know what to expect, only that it had a sort of licorice flavor, but it tasted nice. I think that next time I have some, I'll add more sugar; it was stronger and more bitter than I expected. I sipped it very slowly and carefully.



Overall I was very pleased with my first experience!
