Absinthe Devil Survey: 2010

Absinthe was re-legalised in the USA just over 3 years ago. Since then, about 70 absinthes have been approved for US launch, of which about 45 have now been launched in the USA (May 2010).

With so much choice, Absinthe Devil is often asked for our views on what are the best absinthes, and recommendations are published on our main site. We wanted, however, to get feedback from American consumers buying absinthe, and have conducted a survey of over 170 consumers. The results are now in, and the findings are very interesting:

Update: The survey has been completed. Thanks to everyone that took the time to respond.

We recently sampled two new American absinthe that made the cut for our Recommended Absinthe List. Pacifique and Walton Waters were both added and are top quality absinthes. We suggest you give them a try. You won't be sorry.

Remember, we all need to support American micro-distillers that produce good absinthe. We will all be happy if this industry grows and explores new avenues.
