Ancestors Absinthe (60% ABV) is made in a traditional French style. It includes the characteristic anise and bitterness of grand wormwood. What makes our absinthe unique is that it contains indigenous botanicals not found anywhere else in the world. Most prominent of these is African wormwood, which has a more subtle and less bitter flavour than its European cousin. We also use Impepho, a herb used by traditional Zulu herbalists and shamans, which adds a slightly minty flavour.
