How does Lucid get its color?
Lucid’s green color occurs naturally as a result of its herbal ingredients, without any artificial coloring added – a key feature of genuine absinthe. This natural color requires Lucid’s dark bottle because exposure to light could destroy the natural color, and helps explains why so many traditional absinthes are in dark colored bottles. This natural color also explains why Lucid’s color may appear slightly different from one bottle to the next. In fact, subtle variations in color have always been considered the hallmark of high-quality, genuine absinthe. In the Belle Époque period it actually distinguished a genuine absinthe from an imitation or artificially colored product.
