Absinthe Afternoon

[Subvet642]

As for myself, I like Lucid. It's the commercial label of Ted Breault, an analytical chemist from New Orleans who, having analyzed several vintage bottles from the Belle Epoch and comparing them to published recipes, developed a line of boutique absinthes under the name "Jade". I've been buying absinthe since long before the ban was lifted; And I think that Lucid is probably the best of the commercial labels. Like cigars, they all have different flavor profiles and taste is always subjective. The best of the boutique labels aren't blended, they're macerated and distilled together. Here is a link to a great absinthe information site:
