From their website: Pacifique Absinthe Verte Supérieure is a super-premium absinthe, hand-crafted in the historic Franco-Swiss style. Pacifique is made in exact accordance with a classic 1855 French recipe and faithfully represents a recreation of the kind of absinthe one would drink in 19th century France. Pacifique is artisan distilled using historic distilling techniques in a hand-hammered copper alembic pot still. By using only the finest spirits and selected organic botanicals chosen from around the globe, we ensure a truly world-class product that reflects the undeniable qualities of the art of traditional distilling. Pacifique Absinthe Verte Supérieure is perfectly served performing the classic French Drip Ritual but also blends beautifully with other spirits and mixers. From the classic Sazerac cocktail to a refreshing Clipper Ship, use Pacifique in one of the many historic cocktail recipes of the past or a creation of your own. Pacifique epitomizes the true taste of the Belle Époque.

Color: Nice Peridot green with hints of yellow.

Louche: Nice trails and a decent build, but a tad light for me when finished. I might have received one of the earlier batches though. Apparently later batches have a thicker louche.

Aroma: Crisp, alpine freshness. Extremely clean and inviting.

Flavor: a great representation of the style. Not too overexertive in any certain area. A great balance.

Finish: well balanced and mild

Overall: A wonderfully light, feminine absinthe. Great for a hot day. But I'd drink it anytime.
