Deep, almost murky peridot appearance. The louche is spectacular, with lots going on during a slow drip. Swirling clouds and different layers that eventually merge into one translucent, milky haze. The aroma strikes me as very anise forward, yet very pleasant, with maybe a hint of more (herbal) depth behind the anise. The taste is just about top-notch. Perfectly balanced anise up front with an excellent wormwood bite. For me there's also a major 'floral' quality and a hint of citrus. The finish just leaves you wanting more, with a mouthwatering bite that lasts not too long but for a while.
