Amerique 1912 Absinthe Rouge is infused with hibiscus giving it a red color and a unique floral taste. The Beverage Testing Institute rated it at 95- Exceptional (the highest score BTI has ever awarded an absinthe)

But, I really prefer the additional herbal element gin unites with absinthe, and I wanted a dry vermouth that had a similar botanical build--which Ransom does
