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.

Named after the green reflection from the trees on the waters of the Delaware as it courses through Walton, Walton Waters is a balanced yet playful blend of grand wormwood, anise, fennel, roman wormwood, hyssop, lemon balm and lemon thyme added as a subtle accent.

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.

Delightful! August 27, 2009
Reviewer: Benjamin Lopez from The Absinthe Review Network  
This absinthe has a distinct "fresh baked" quality to it, that should appeal to those with a sweet tooth.  Fortunately, this is achieved with precision, without becoming a badiane-bomb.

Makes me wish there was a 4 1/2 star option!  

It is produced on a small scale, so order a bottle before it is out of stock again!

amazing perfume/aroma/fragrance August 14, 2009
Reviewer: Anonymous Person from Death Valley  
This one is way up there with the perfume/fragrance characteristics compared to other modern absinthes . I am not so enthused about the use of grain alcohol as a base compared to the smoother, silkier results that can be had with using grape alcohol(brandy) but still pretty good despite this .  A 'powdery' creamy taste that is unlike other absinthes that i've had , anyway .  The green-est shade of absinthe that i've yet seen ... I'm trying the Meadow of Love next to see how it compares .

My favorite July 25, 2009
Reviewer: Jason Schepers from Portland, OR United States  
I've tried eight different absinthes so far, and this is my top pick.  It has an outstanding, refined flavor and a rich, creamy mouthfeel.

Green anise and fennel are certainly there, but there's also a peppery sweetness that is just shy of being minty (possibly the lemon thyme).

You cannot go wrong with either this one or Meadow Of Love.  Buy them and love them!

a delightful, traditional absinthe May 9, 2009
Reviewer: Brandon LeLeux from Lake Charles, LA United States  
This absinthe is a perfect tradition styling.

The nose is wonderfully fragrant and aromatic. A beautiful balance of all the main herbs, especially once you add water.

The louche is near perfect. Opalescent green, not too thick, not too thin. Great mouthfeel. Its numbs the tongue oh so well.

The taste is a great balance. All the herbs play off one another and seem to all hang around for the long haul. It doesn't just fade to the wormwood bitterness, even the sweetness of the fenel seems to stay all day.

I highly recommend this. Well worth the price.
