It's perfectly clear, so that gives it a 5.



The louche is a bit too quick. It's not off-putting, but it's too quick to be completely natural. It ends up being a tad too thick for my liking.



Before louching, there's an ethanol scent that's unpleasant, but the addition of water dissipates said aroma and leaves a decent anise scent with vegetal undertones. Not a lot of wormwood at all.



There's waaaay too much star anise, which along with the sugar added, lends a cloying sweetness. Not much other than anise and mint can be detected.



Overall, it's nothing special. It wasn't bad, but I wouldn't be able to drink it often. It's entirely too sweet and one-dimensional.
