Description   Out of Stock. In the secluded hollows of the Western Catskills lie the headwaters of the Delaware River, where meadows, woodlands, old farmsteads and small villages stand as relics of a simpler time. Delaware Phoenix Distillery, located in the village of Walton near the banks of the Delaware River, produces artisanal absinthes. The absinthe, hand-crafted with a nostalgic blend of classic European and regional herbs and pure Catskill waters, is produced in a 30 liter, traditional copper still. Individually numbered bottles represent the uniqueness of their small batch production. Thus, there is natural variation from each batch. Using the same six core herbs as the Walton Waters--grand wormwood, anise, fennel, roman wormwood, hyssop, and lemon balm--Meadow of Love celebrates the region’s bounty with wormwood, hyssop, lemon balm and violet from small farms and local herbalists. The first sip impression is a dry, subtle absinthe due to the hyssop and violet, but over time the grand wormwood steps forward, announcing its presence. The color of this absinthe is obtained by adding herbs to the distillate, followed by light filtering and racking. As such, a small amount of herbal sediment may find its way to the bottom of the bottle. The color is subject to degradation due to direct sunlight and heat. Over time, the color may become more amber--a color referred to in French as feuille morte, or "dead leaf"--which is a natural process that does not affect the exquisite taste.

Great job, Cheryl! September 26, 2009 Reviewer: Wilson Phillips from Natchez, MS United States   This is one of my favorites. Not too sweet. Very earthy tones. I love it. Keep up the good work girl. Was this review helpful to you?

focused August 27, 2009 Reviewer: Anonymous person   The drier and more bitter counterpart to Walton Waters, MOL is more earthy tasting with the addition of violet as an ingredient which I believe lends to a more rustic and earthier tasting 'sinthe.  Almost a taste of the ground/soil that the herbs were grown in ...  fans of bitter absinthe will appreciate this one . If you prefer the sweeter and gentler absinthes, you're best to go with the Walton Waters instead ... Was this review helpful to you?

Fantastic July 25, 2009 Reviewer: Jason Schepers from Portland, OR United States   Meadow Of Love is the slightly more bitter (and spicier) cousin to Walton Waters that is every bit as enjoyable, but in different way.  The flavor is outstanding, and it's distinct flavor seems to owe a great deal to the violet. If you get both this one and Walton Waters, you will have my two favorite absinthes and well on your way to happiness. Was this review helpful to you?

Not much to add. . . July 23, 2009 Reviewer: Anonymous person from Yorktown Heights, NY United States   To the other reviews, except to say this is indeed one of the best (indeed, perhaps the best) absinthes on the market. You can taste the distiller's artistry in every sip. More than worth the price. Was this review helpful to you?

Delaware PhoenixDistillery's Meadow of Love June 9, 2009 Reviewer: Elliot Shapiro from Bellingham , WA United States   Along with Pacifique, this is my favorite commercial absinthe available today, and it rivals a couple of the pre-ban brands I've sampled. The violet works beautifully as a segue into some terrific rural Virginia wormwood, and along with a hefty dose of hyssop, the dry/slightly bitter palate is absolutely captivating. The louche is full, and the mouth feel is creamy, and there's just right amount of anise and fennel to round out this beauty, and add a dash of sweetness. This one is definitely already a winner, and it's very young. I can't wait to see what a few months of age will reveal in the flavor Amazing creation, Cheryl! Was this review helpful to you?
