St. George Absinthe Verte is a 60% ABV absinthe from St. George Spirits in Alameda, California, released in 2007 as the first legal American absinthe after the US ban was lifted. It begins as unaged grape brandy infused with wormwood, fennel and star anise, distilled in a copper pot still, then infused again with mint, tarragon, Genovese basil, lemon balm, hyssop and stinging nettle. Its natural emerald colour comes from chlorophyll in the second infusion and fades toward feuille morte in light. No sugar is needed; it can be enjoyed with water until it louches or used in dashes in cocktails.
Tasting Notes
Spicy black licorice opening out to citrus and grass, with sarsaparilla.
Rich and viscous from abundant essential oils, even at full proof.
Herbal and floral, deepening as water brings out the louche.
