La Fée Parisienne Absinthe 20cl, 68% ABV, Authentic, Classic, Verte, Green Absinthe

Always wanted to try this and of all the Absinthe available, this one seemed to be 'legit' compared with some of the others I looked that.Its quite expensive but utterly delicious and quite potent. I love the whole sugar on Absinthe spoon ritual that seems to make it taste even more delicious

Comes with spoon and is traditional flavour that i like and nice strength would buy again.

If you want quality , classic absinthe then this is the one. Worth the slightly higher price...and I'm a Yorkshireman!

I've had a longing to properly give this product a try out. About 2 years ago, I had a "shot" of The Green Fairy in a pub for about a fiver. This was after several beers. from( a bit of a beer fuddled) memory it had a nice strong peppermint flavour,and certainly kicked some ass. This is not the traditional method to drink it. It is required to dilute it with about 4 - 5 parts very cold water drizzed over a sugar cube, on a special Absinth spoon. I've now found it not too very much to my liking. I've found it too much Anise (Pernod / Ouzo) flavour. Only a personal not like,but others may like it. It really does have a strong Anise flavour to it. I've not encountered any so called "psychedelicc" effects of drinking it. "When Knights on the chessboard get and tell you where to go". At present, my conclusion is that I am not keen on it, but that's only personal prefereces. You may like it, but myself not so keen. I think I will finish the bottle by mixing in this in with beer ( afficainadoes, will probably give me a hard time for that )- but hey, I bought it and didn't like it ,so am going to finish it. Having said all that, there's no doubt that this a high quality product,packaged very well,and with a very good pedigree attached to it. To concluse : a first class, excellent drink - if you like it.

With about five to ten dilution with water, the mouth feel and flavour are very satisfying indeed.

Have you ever wanted to get drunk on 20cl, this is for you, this beauty will put you on your back, and I'm a Yorkshire man, we know how to drink, highly recommend

Bought this as a surprise present for my son. He was absolutely delighted. He has tried this once before and was impressed with the absinthe spoon that came with the bottle! I also purchased from Amazon, a box of lump sugar to go with hit. It was the first thing he made sure went in his bag to return home with! He was chuffed to bits. He has stashed it away for special occasions only! Eagerly awaiting taste and effect reports from him! Mind you, he did open the bottle and took a good sniff, saying "Cor! That's the stuff!". Sadly he had to go to work shortly, otherwise......

If you just want traditional absinthe without flavouring (other than the aniseed flavour it's meant to have) and at full strength then this is for you. The free spoon is useful too and good quality. Would recommend
