The Bohemian Absinthe culture is not without controversy, as Czech Absinthes have little in common with south-westerly wormwood distillates. In particular, the generally applied absence of anise leads to a completely different taste. Notorious are some very bitter macerates and souvenir spirits, which remind of mouthwash. Qualitative progress is primarily in the distillery Cami, but also the Bairnsfather Absinthes are delicious and certainly recommendable.
