Absente55Absinthe(700ml)

Sans Absinthe was the trademark drink during the heady days of 19th century Paris. Famous artists, writers and poets like Picasso, Baudelaire, Hemingway, Degas, Manet, Toulouse-Lautrec and Oscar Wilde all heavily indulged in it. Maybe it was the mystical allure of ‘The Green Fairyâ€? or maybe it helped inspire their creativity. Absente, or ‘Absinthe Refinedâ€? is a modern version of the original Absinthe recipe. While it retains the same aromatics and emerald green colour, its difference is that the Wormwood, (the botanical that caused the initial ban), has been replaced with a less bitter cousin called Southern-Wormwood, also known as ‘Petite Absintheâ€?/i>.
