What I’m drinking…
Whenever I can get hold of it, I drink the ever so...
Hard to get and pricey, but definitely worth it. Not only does Century contain a massive amount of the all-important thujone, it is also one of the best-tasting absinthes I have ever had - a rare combination!

I really like this one! Much more affordable than Century, my all-time favourite, but still very, very good. Maktub is the party spirit from the jazz age with a clean, fresh taste and plenty of buzz. Recommended.

Perhaps the only fault of Doubs Mystique is its relatively low thujone content -- so don't expect to dance with the Fairy :-) But if you drink absinthe for the taste alone, you will not be disappointed.

I confess. Yes, Absinthium 1792 is a rather cheap, artificially coloured oil mix, but I still like the taste and do drink it from time to time. Louches nicely, which is not at all usual for an absinthe of this class.

L' Absinthe Rend Fou 
I have yet to try the Absinthium Red, as I wasn’t aware that there was any tradition to red absinthe – seems I was wrong. It dates back to the use of paprika in Spain, I see. What is it like?
Absinthium 1792 is one of my favourites, good long anise flavour, and a nice louche. Some people are alarmed by the colour, but after water you have a refreshing authentic absinthe.
Not sure what this means, but thanks: Osservazioni: Accogliamo favorevolmente le osservazioni note dell’assaggio per quanto riguarda assenzio 1792 e colore rosso dell’assenzio
