St. George Absinthe Verte
Customer Rating
“As a fan of Sazerac and Inside Job cocktails, I've experimented with a range of absinthes and this is unquestionably my favourite. Wonderfully rich and complex by itself it adds all the right notes to mixed drinks. Highly recommended.”

Description
From the Californian distillery St. George Spirits comes a great absinthe created with ingredients such as star anise, fennel, lemon balm, hyssop and stinging nettles. It was the first legal American absinthe released after the ban was lifted in 2007, although the recipe was developed over an eleven year period! This is the 70cl bottling.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Crisp anise and heady floral notes. A touch of vegetal nettle notes. Sweet, refreshing lemon.
Palate
Intense wormwood is evident at the core of this one. Earthy hyssop and fennel arrive alongside. Authentic anise all the way through.
Finish
Lasting anise and a slight touch of bitter herbs. Lemon balm lingers for a good while afterwards.
