Will be ordering from Catskill since DUNY is out
So far we have had (we'll just skip crap)
Ridge Blanche - I love
Ridge Verte- I love
Pacifique- I really love
Leopold- We both love
Meadow of Love- Jury is out
Ok so available we have:
Vieux Pontarlier
La Clandestine
Jade NO
Duplais
Of those 4 which would you suggest to go along with the Pacifique?

After reading Ambear's comment, I'm thinking Ridge B will be my next purchase. LaC is good but Duplais Verte.. YUM! I also just ordered two bottles of Duplais Balance from absinthes.com.

I guess I basically need to decide if I want to justify 110 bucks for the NO, the brightside is shipping will be free.


Duplais is getting lots of votes...interesting.
Pretty sure I can't go wrong with any of the three vertes.

None of the above. I think your present selection exceeds any of them, although for a quirky change of pace, I might pick the NO.
Yes, I'm Krinkles the Clown on an absinthe a beer bender.
You got a problem with that?

If you don't like anise at all, you're not likely to care for any decent absinthe, as absinthe is an anise flavored drink. It's kind of like asking if there are any good beers that don't taste like hops or malt.----Hiram

and the sad silent song made the hour twice as long,
as I waited for that sun to go sinkin'.

That's no fun though.

Oh yeah, Obsello. Just tried it recently for the first time and I'm really loving it.

While I'm tempted to promote my own swill, honestly I have to encourage you to try something you haven't tried before. Try the Duplais or CLB. Both are well crafted and very tasty.

Yeah I could live with Ridge Blanche forever, no real need in my eyes to explore the clear realm much deeper.
Here are 3 'must try' blanches:
Ridge, (you knew that already

La Clandestine
and La Fontaine
Those are the ones I keep going back for repeat buys. The rest have been 'hey that was pretty good' one-timers so far.

Another out of stock place. Although with a mid March restocking notice.I must say, I'm a fan of anything from Catskill Cellars. Julie stocks her shelves well.

Now the CLB will travel with nothing but a bunch of vertes for company.

Lots to try. Shame to only have one taste processing system on board with all these choices.
