The Absinthe Liquor from Quaglia distillery represents a historical evocation that invites the discovery of ancient and mysterious flavors. With an alcohol content of 70%, this liquor embodies the very essence of the traditional "green spirit". Made using a variety of herbs including wormwood, anise, and fennel, Quaglia Absinthe stands out for its complex and intensely aromatic taste.
The distillation follows traditional methods, which gives the liquor exceptional quality and purity. The color is naturally green, with reflections that vary depending on the light, typical of high-quality absinthe. On the nose, the herbal and fresh notes of absinthe are immediately perceived, enriched by subtle nuances of anise and other aromatic herbs.
On the palate, Quaglia Absinthe Liquor is vigorous and full, with a long aftertaste where the flavor of anise and fennel harmoniously blend with the more dominant absinthe. It is ideal to serve cold, traditionally with a sugar cube to temper the intensity, or as a base for intriguing and sophisticated cocktails.
This liquor is not only a pleasure for the palate but also a journey into the history of European spirits, perfect for those who wish to explore the depths and nuances of almost forgotten tastes.
