    Distilling Process

    Tenth Ward's Absinthe Nouvelle begins with our neutral cane spirit base. We begin maceration by adding fennel, green anise, grand wormwood, chrysanthemum, star anise and powdered mace to the spirit within the pot.

    We then add water to dilute the alcohol, heat it up just below boiling, and keep it in the still overnight. This way the herbs mix with the alcohol and develop the typical absinthe aromas. This step - also called "digestion" - helps release anethole from the fennel and anise. Anethole is what gives absinthe that beautiful louche when water is added.
    We then (very, VERY slowly) distill out the perfumed spirit, being very careful to pay attention to temperature so we don't torch the herbs.
    After the distillation is complete, we begin coloration.

    Coloration is a process where the herbs are infused and almost steeped like a tea with the still warmed up enough but not to boiling temp. We use lemon balm, hyssop and bergamot peel until we get the vibrant green color that great absinthe is known for.

    Tasting Note

    A punch of rich licorice, complex herbal notes, and floral fairy dust.
