Perigan 68 - Le Vrai Absinthe

Brand information

Alcohol
50%
Manufacturer
Beveland
Country
Spain
Color
Verte
Type
Mixed & Macerated

A label that reads 68 but the drink contains only 50% alcohol... Well, that sets the standard for this brand. Not one of the better Spanish absinthes.

 
 
Pernod 68 - Aux extrait de plantes d'absinthe

Brand information

Alcohol
68%
Manufacturer
Pernod Ricard
Country
France
Color
Verte
Type
Mixed & Macerated

Pernod Fils' first absinthe with the Pernod name on the label since the French ban in 1915. They claim it's based on the original recipe and maybe the looked at it quickly and then decided to do something completely different. This is not even close to vintage Pernod absinthe.

 
 
PF 1901

Brand information

Alcohol
68%
Manufacturer
Combier / Jade Liqueurs
Country
France
Color
Verte
Type
Distilled

The fourth absinthe in the line of pre-ban reproductions to come out from Jade Liqueurs. This mimics a pre-ban Pernod Fils and though it's not an exact replica it's definitely a good absinthe and much closer to the original than the new Pernod Fils absinthe itself.

One of many Spanish oil mixes. This brand has been available for a really long time and has that typical citrusy Spanish touch.

Sebor Absinth s.r.o
Country
Czech Republic
Color
Verte
Type
Mixed & Macerated

Sebor was also a pioneer in Czech absinth. Even though the Sebor isn't distilled it was still one of the better Czech absinths back in late 1990's. But that was back then... 

 
 
Segarra Absenta 45

Brand information

Alcohol
45%
Manufacturer
Destilerias Julian Segarra
Country
Spain
Color
Verte
Type
Distilled

One of the very few modern distilled Spanish absentas. The Segarra distillery usually makes excellent brandy and then there's this quite special absinthe.

 
 
Segarra Absenta 68

Brand information

Alcohol
68%
Manufacturer
Destilerias Julian Segarra
Country
Spain
Color
Verte
Type
Distilled

It was a great pleasure to see a stronger version of the nice Segarra absenta. But that was quickly killed by the wrongful use of Wormwood for coloring. That gives you a nasty bitterness. Too bad.

 
 
Serpis Absinth Classic 55

Brand information

Alcohol

Manufacturer
Licores Sinc, S.A
Country
Spain
Color
Rouge
Type
Distilled

The famous red Spanish absinthe. Around 2005 several Spanish brands started to make absinthe in all kinds of colors. But the Serpis Red Absinthe is still one of the first, in the modern era.

 
 
Serpis Absinth Classic 65

Brand information

Manufacturer
Licores Sinc, S.A

A slightly stronger version of the classic red Serpis absinthe. If you want to make a Slerpis the right way, this is what you need.

 
 
Serpis Absinth Dry

Brand information

Alcohol
55%
Manufacturer
Licores Sinc, S.A
Country
Spain
Color
Rouge
Type
Distilled

An anise free version of the red Serpis absinthe aimed at the German market which prefers the slightly more bitter taste. I would think that it might do well in cocktails, but other than that I'd stick to the regular Serpis.

 
 
Spiritueux a l'Absinthe, Emile Coulin

Brand information

Alcohol
55%
Manufacturer
Distillerie Artisanale Emile Coulin
Country
France
Color
Verte
Type
Distilled

A distilled absinthe at a really attractive price. Only one flaw in the production ruins the concept of this being an affordable decent absinthe... It's far to bitter on the finish.

 
 
St. George Absinthe Verte

Brand information

Alcohol
60%
Manufacturer
St. George Spirits
Country
USA
Color
Verte
Type
Distilled

The first absinthe to get approval in the US since the ban was lifted in 2007. Manufactured in an old naval hangar outside San Fransisco and with ingredients not commonly found in traditional absinthe it is an interesting product on several levels.

 
 
Staroplzcenecky Absinth (green)

Brand information

Alcohol
70%
Manufacturer
L'Or Special Drinks s.r.o
Country
Czech Republic
Color
Verte
Type
Mixed & Macerated

One of the more well known Czech absinths. The Staroplzcenecky (try writing that really fast) come in red and green variaties. Pretty much only with the color differentiating the two.
