Review:
Good! Fresh, minty, alpine, herbal. Blossoming fragrance when louching. A little off-fragrance before mixing ... but completely transformed when ice water is added. Louche is blueish and thick. Somewhat slow ... but opaque when complete. Thick mouth-feel.... Finishing my second bottle. Will be my "staple" brand when my option is to go to the local liquor store (VA, US).

One of the best absinthes i know.. simple, but complex in a way. i drink this one with one sugar cube and realy cold water, another good thing is that it doesnt matter how much water you add, it always gets a good thick palette of taste. also the fairy effect definitely noticable. its true, the fairy exists :)

The one available in the U.S. is unchanged, thats one of the reasons why it was the 2nd absinthe to hit the American market after(Lucid) the ban because Kubler did not want to change the recipe and they claim they didnt touch it at all. After having tasted both side by side the taste is pretty much the same and the louche is the same(both use star anise and green anise in recipe), I say pretty much the same because the bottle Ive had from the original Swiss version has had time to age, I actually taste slightly more wormwood profile in the American release.

I tried both versions, the US version tastes differently and the louche isnīt as thick as the one from the European version.

Ha ha I like how Alandia tries to get Americans to buy the SAME EXACT product that we can get in America for around $50...thats right our version is NOT modified from the European version. Now from that being said, it is a nice starter absinthe, louches a tad quick and more on the anise up front but a nice wormwood finish.

I am writing this review on the American version which I like it very much! Based upon how much I like the American one I will ordering bottles of the European variety Alandia is offering. Even the American version has a pronounced "wormwood effect." I can just imagine how wonderful the Alandia version will be! Nice louche with good opalescent surface coating. This absinthe really has grown on me because of the balance of herbs that gives a more complete and smooth feel across the pallet (not to mention the glorious thujong racing across the synapses of your brain).
