This is probably the most critically acclaimed domestic absinthe available. It is truly one of the most well crafted and thoughtful creations available today. Ridge Distillery takes exquisite care to use only the most exceptionally high quality herbs and their recipe for traditional absinthe Verte is rich, complex, and appealing. From the Sprits Journal: " *Highly Recommended* Pretty olive green/yellow color; unblemished clarity. Initial whiffs detect plenty of assertive but not overpowering herbaceousness/woodsiness; after another seven minutes of exposure to air, the bouquet settles in featuring pleasing layers of marshmallow, anise/licorice, dried sage, gum and spring forest vegetation. Entry highlights a buttery oiliness that displays the herbs and botanicals very nicely without the high abv getting in the way; mid palate is richly textured, intensely herbal (the dried sage is off the charts good) and properly spirit. Finish closes the circle well with a rush of black peppercorn spikiness that’s fitting. Good job here in capturing the essence of absinthe." (03/2011)
