but not generic either

The palate has great richness without showing alcoholic heat and gently tapers into a finish of vanilla cream and toasted oranges

St George Absinthe 750ml california Italy shelfAroma before louche is star anise dominant with a bit of heat. Sweet and candy like. Notes of wildflower honey and something that resembles artificial cinnamon like in Big Red gum. After louche I think I can kind of smell a little bit of wormwood, but otherwise the other flavours are simply stronger than before. No floral wormwood.
