Obsello Spanish Absinthe
Obsello [ob-SAY-yo] is a new Absinthe being made by an American distiller in Spain. I tried it recently and found it had excellent balance of bitter and sweet and wasn't overwhelmingly toungue-numbing as some Absinthes can be. It's less herby/botanical than, say, St. George, but it's very pleasant. At 50% abv, it's also a bit lower in alcohol than some Absinthes, which means you may want to add less water than usual.
