I like this distillery, but I've been super annoyed that this absinthe doesn't produce a louche at all (cloudiness characteristic of traditional absinthe when mixed with water). I set aside my annoyance for a random mixture that is actually decent - shaken with cold water and poured over a generous splash of these bitters. I named the drink "Well, I Guess".
It's the same deal with the other bottle I picked up, so it must be something they're omitting in their distillation process. I guess it's a feature, not a bug. Maybe they intended it to be a clean mixing absinthe.
