Tried 2 different Absinthe brands — here is what I found

Over the past year I've tried 2 different expressions of Absinthe, ranging from entry-level to premium. My conclusion: the complexity on the palate is the most reliable indicator of quality across price points. Served in a proper glass at room temperature, the differences are pronounced and educational.

The best value wasn't the most expensive. There's a sweet spot in the middle range where quality and price align well. Happy to share specifics if anyone asks.
