Please be sure to pick up this month's issue of Gourmet Magazine (April 2009). There is an excellent article on absinthe by Jame Rodewald called "Green Fairy Tales." Our products were used in the photo shoot for the piece. It's a great read and clears up the thujone hype that surrounded absinthe for so many years. It's great to see the truth about absinthe appear in such a respected and popular magazine. Have a look here:

Here's an interesting story on Obsello absinthe. Obsello appears to be having the same problem as Kubler in the US market - keeping up with demand. This isn't such a bad problem to have! I don't find it surprising though. I really enjoy Obsello and find it to be one of the finest absinthe's available on the US market. If you haven't tried it, get a bottle and thank me later.
