Look at the pretty peridot, must not say Phosphophyllite, colour. I remember La fee from a previous bottle, from France, NV absinthe Verte standing at 40%. Didnt notice the lower alcohol percentage until typing began, noticed something was different. Overall it is much more mellow than previous endeavours. It kinda has a juice like aroma, sweetness and not much else. Texture is super thin, before and after louche, and leaves the lightest of tingles. Taste does leave you wanting more. Between the sweetness, mild anise and water like flavours. Visually pretty but not a good absinthe by a long shot.

Tonight we have another La Fee, called XS Francaise standing at 68%. And thankfully it is a good one. Sweet and oily. Punchy herby and wormwood aroma. Louche, oh how I’ve missed you. Will say that it punches you with anise, wormwood and sweetness, but it fades away fairly quickly. Leaves you with a slight tingle on the tongue. Overall very pleasant, but not insane as one or two previous. So far this is the most drinkable though, its going down very quickly.
