Mansinthe Absinthe by Marilyn Manson
Mansinthe is distilled in Switzerland by the family-owned Matter distillery. This distillery specializes in the production of premium spirits. Some of the best absinthes, which have already won awards at international spirit competitions, are made by master distiller Oliver Matter. Mansinthe is a traditional absinthe made with wormwood, green anise, fennel, and some other herbs. It can be considered a very good absinthe, but it is perhaps not as strong and extraordinary as you would expect if you see the bottle's label and think of the artist's music. There is no doubt about it, Marilyn Manson is a unique person, but his absinthe is more of a classic absinthe or absinth (alternative spellings).
Mansinthe's recipe uses traditional ingredients like wormwood (artemisia absinthium), but the level of aniseed is kept rather low, to please first-timers as well. Overall, you can say Mansinthe is balanced and not too liquorice-y in taste. The label on the bottle shows an original artwork by Marilyn Manson. We are sure you already knew that Manson is also a talented painter. Perhaps the Green Fairy inspired him for some works... Get yourself a bottle of Mansinthe and experience what inspires Marilyn Manson!

The album Golden Age of Grotesque in 2003 was Manson's hommage to art, expressionism and late 19th century Parisian decadence. Manson could scarcely be seen without a milky glass of the green spirit as his accessory. Also, his former girlfriend Dita Von Teese was associated with the drink, as she started to promote Burlesque dancing with her shows.
