Anise is a flowering plant native to the Mediterranean region and southwest Asia. Its flavor is similar to other spices such as star anise, fennel and liquorice.
Absinthe is a distilled alcoholic beverage in which anise is one of the ingredients. It is isually made with botanticals such as wormwood, green anise, sweet fennel and other medicinal and culinary herbs. Absinthe is classified as a spirit as it does not contain added sugars as is the case with liqueurs.
Maddcatt Vapor's Purple Raven is a grape flavored e-liquid blended with many of the same flavorings used to make Absinthe. The grape flavoring is the dominant flavor with subtle hints of anise adding a "licorice" touch. This is not a candy sweet type of licorice however. It is a mildly sweet herbal licorice coupled with fennel. If you are looking for a grape flavored black jelly bean, you may be disappointed. This is a more natural and milder type of licorice experience.
I'm loving Purple Raven. I haven't stopped vaping it since I opened the bottle. It's like vaping a purple lollipop without all of the sugar and instead, subtle hints of absinthe. I am beginning to think of it as a grape lollipop for adults.
