There are so many Czech absinths like this one it actually hurts. For real. Artificially colored and almost blue... The review speaks for itself.

Absinthe reviews

A colleague of mine went to Croatia for vacationing. On their way driving down there, they just happened to stop by for a few days in Prague. Guess what... "Nice" as they were, they bought me a bottle of absinth.

The Stromu absinth falls right into the category of crappy utterly disgusting Czech swill. With its blueish washer fluid like color and alcoholic chewing gum flavor and no louche what so ever, this is no good. It's crap. There's no more to be said.
