That's not always a bad thing, but I find the cinnamon too overbearing, and the basil distracting as well. Had to sink it after my second sip. Just not my cup o' tea. I give it 2 stars because it is a quality product, though I personally find it undrinkable. I wish Lance would create a more traditional absinthe, as I know he possesses the skill to make a fine one.

The Best So Far ! |

This is a complex, tasty, delicious, refined & lovely product.
I did not find it overpowering & consider it a taste treat. The price has gone down so not much reason to miss trying this.
Generally, from my experience I've come to prefer a standard traditonal absinthe of quality,which this is not. However, even though this is not a traditional style absinthe, it is still my favorite!
That sez it all.

Best American-made Absinthe, period . |

St. George gets a lot of flack from the absinthe snobs/geeks because it's quite powerful in flavor and 'effect' due to it's particular ratio of traditional and non-traditional herbs ...
I was pleasantly surprised upon opening my first bottle of the stuff, an amazing earthy-herbal-floral perfume within the brandy base(the best absinthes use a brandy/grape alcohol base and NOT grain alcohol as some are, unfortunately .)
A friend was at my place and I had her have a whiff of the un-diluted liquor in the glass. Her eyes opened wide and she smiled and said "OMG that's so good !" So, that should tell you what it's all about ... My favorite US-produced Absinthe for sure ... I will be buying more. Word is they are about to release a blanche/swiss-styled Absinthe soon ...

This is a delectable, herby, delicious Absinthe with a couple of twists. The brandy base and the use of stinging nettles (among others) gives St. George a very distinctive taste and one I enjoy very much. Often I find myself just rolling it around on my tongue to try and absorb the complexity of the taste. It is a little pricier than most Absinthes, but it is quite worth it!

Ok, but there are better U.S. brands... |

Too sweet, and too much anise.
Still very pleasurable, but I'd say the Vieux Carre from the Philadelphia Distilling company is a large step above this...
