Questions and Answers
What is absinthe and how does it differ from other spirits?
Absinthe is a strong spirit made with wormwood, anise and other herbs, with an alcohol content of 55 to 85%. Its signature green colour comes from chlorophyll, though red, yellow, black and clear varieties also exist. Unlike vodka or whisky, absinthe has a distinctly herbal flavour and a unique drinking ritual involving water and sugar.
How do you drink absinthe properly?
The classic method is to dilute it with cold water at a 3:1 ratio, poured over a sugar cube on a slotted spoon. The flaming method is also popular: a sugar cube soaked in absinthe is set alight on the spoon and the caramelised syrup drips into the glass. Absinthe is also widely used as a cocktail base.
What should I look for when choosing absinthe?
Check the ABV — genuine absinthe should be at least 55%. Pay attention to the thujone content (stated on the label), the country of production and the spelling of the name: Absinthe (France), Absenta (Spain, Italy), Absinth (Czech Republic). Drinks below 55% are usually wormwood liqueurs rather than true absinthe.
