'Nouvelle Vague' or 'New Wave' refers to the contemporary flavour composition of this absinthe with coffee and cocoa flavours. The makers recommend diluting with cold water to ratio of 1:2 to 1:4 and recommend adding a little sugar syrup.
The 'Sleeping Child' label (Absinthe Art Edition 7) is by Gottfried Helnwein, a provocative and controversial Austrian-Irish artist famous for his depictions of wounded children.

Clear, pale grassy green. With water louches very pale chalky green.
Very pungent with pine needle and herbal aromas with anise and fennel. Water releases liquorice notes.
Clean, fresh and complex with harmonious fennel, anise and alpine herbs.
Similarly pleasing finish.
