The truth about absinthe glasses
I love antique absinthe glasses. To me, each glass from the Belle Époque is a unique piece of art, with which you can feel and see the skills of the glassblower. The bubbles, inclusions,... [...]

Absinthe Perroquet
By fan-I-am. Posted 17/05/2012
The best surprise I've had so far! This is definitely going to be part of my constant stock!
Bottle was larger than expected.
Color: is lovely and louches like a lava lamp (mesmerizing)
Smell: Typical sweet anise but not too sweet with a hint of something spicy.
Taste: Just so tasty and more-ish. Midway through you get a warm spice feel in the mouth, then as you get towards the bottom, sweet again.
Overall: I tried with sugar 1st, then without. More enjoyable flavors with a bit of sugar I believe. I love this absinthe! The only downside I can find is the brittle wax seal is a bit messy to get off and the cork is not a T-cork so careful not to wreck it with the corkscrew so it can be re-used.

This is most definately the highest quality crystal glass I have ever purchased. The silver accent rim just adds to the beauty.
Absinthe Sauvage 1804 - 2nd edition
By JohnC. Posted 15/05/2012
Loved the first edition the herbal freshness was amazing. But the second edition, while gaining from the wine based distillate in terms of smoothness, lost all the herbal punchiness of the first. Insipide rather than sauvage is my verdict. Sorry guys.
Absinthe Sauvage 1804 - 2nd edition
By Bruun. Posted 15/05/2012
Great stuff - I found the first edition quite harsh to begin with, lots of pepper/nutmeg, though it has since mellowed and will probably just get better with ageing. This second edition is more rounded, the caramel sweetness even reminding me of the Perroquet (which is too sweet for my taste). This finds a very nice balance - without losing the wormwood character it has a creamier mouthfeel and the nose has a more rich, fruity character.
Absinthe Dripper Glass - High Quality
By double D. Posted 15/05/2012
The dripper is top notch and a near necessity for the proper "drip". Now, if I only could find absinthe glasses in the Phoenix metro area!
