A worthy addition to any cabinet
I am no expert on the fineries of alcoholic beverages, especially absinthe. Yet I find myself speechless every time I am able to consume Lucid Absinthe’s unique and complicated blending of aromatic herbs and spices. The first time you open a bottle of absinthe is absolutely magical. I cannot tell you how or why it works, only that it does, and it is worth experiencing at least once in your life. The packaging was exceptional, not an ounce spilled during transit, and it arrived only days after ordering. As a social drinker, at best, I find myself drawn to the allure of having such a fine beverage stand resolute amongst the many bottles of alcohol in my respectable repertoire. Enjoy 🙂
