Absinthe Set Hamlet Classic Skull

This extraordinary Absinthe set contains a bottle of Hamlet Classic Green Absinthe, two Skull Absinthe glasses, two traditional Absinthe spoons and a bag of Absinthe sugar cubes. The skull set is of course a real eye-catcher. But also the contents are very impressive: The recipe of Hamlet Classic is based on the classic Absinthe herbs wormwood, anise and fennel. Furthermore, Hamlet Classic Absinthe has a strong 69% alcohol content. Despite the high alcohol content, the Absinthe is pleasantly mild in taste. A slight sweetness can be seen in the finish, which indicates the use of cinnamon and vanilla in the recipe. The green color of the Absinthe comes from the plant pigment chlorophyll. When ice-cold water is added, Hamlet Classic turns into a beautiful milky white. This is called "louche" in technical Absintheur jargon. The skull glasses included in the set are a perfect match for the Hamlet Absinthe. They hold 80 ml, i.e. exactly the right amount for a strong Absinthe.

INFO: After use, the skull bottle can also be reused (up-cycled). It is suitable, for example, as a fancy oil or vinegar dispenser or creepy flower vase. To conclude, this Absinthe set combines classic with modern. It is by its cool optics likewise a perfect gift!

Why do some Absinthes have a bright green color?

Absinthe traditionally is of green color. That is why we also call the drink the "Green Fairy". But if an Absinthe is bright green, you can be sure, that it is artificially colored. You can only achieve a bright green color with coloration. If you use plant-based coloration, you will initially get a dark green as well, but over time this color can lose its intensity changing to a lighter yellow-green, sometimes even amber color. Why? Because sunlight dissolves chlorophyll and therefore as well the green color can vanish. That is the reason why many green Absinthes are bottled in dark bottles. If you have a clear glass bottle, like we use for Hamlet Classic Green Absinthe, it is important to store the bottle in a dark place. It should not be placed in direct sunlight. But, and this is important, even if the Absinthe loses its initial green color, its quality is not affected. It is a natural process that actually shows you, that you have bought the traditional, classic Green Fairy.
