Jade Absinthes

T.A. Breaux, Viridian Spirit and Lucid Absinthe Superieure joined together to launch three limited-quantity absinthes in the U.S.: Jade C.F. Berger, Jade Esprit Edouard and Jade 1901. Jade C.F. Berger has a bold scent, a full-bodied taste and strong herbal notes, while Jade Esprit Edouard is a reproduction of the defunct Belle Epoque absinthes and has a refined texture, delicate tint and smooth flavor. Jade 1901 is balanced with a crisp taste, an herbal aroma and a smooth finish. The absinthes were released in Europe in 2005, replicating the original 19th century brands owned by Breaux. www.viridianspirits.com.

Dogfish Head Bitches Brew

Dogfish Head Craft Brewery debuts Bitches Brew in honor of the 40th anniversary of the original release of Miles Davis’ album of the same name. The beer is dark and bold and is a fusion of three threads imperial stout and one thread honey beer with gesho root. The ale tastes best when served cool from either a snifter or red wine glass or paired with chili or spicy curry chicken.www.dogfish.com.
