    What do reviewers say about Absinthe-Minded and Hexensalbe?

    This is absinthe as a mood, not a gimmick. Sharp and green at first, then the boozy depth creeps in and refuses to leave. Wear it when you want the conversation to come to you.Absinthe-Minded
    The opening is jarring. Wormwood hits sharp and cold, licorice follows with something almost salty-ammounted, and if you're not braced for it, the whole thing reads as strange. That's the point.Hexensalbe
