Wormwood - Cut

Wormwood is the fabled defining botanical in absinthe.  Many modern absinthe are much more anise-forward, but absinthe just isn't an absinthe without wormwood.  

Wormwood is one of the most bitter botanicals.  When macerated it forms a VERY bitter tincture.  Distillation softens this aspect significantly.  

Also used as the bittering agent in Vermouth.
