Minos Absinthe

“La Divina Commedia”, by the Italian poet Dante Alighieri, brings the definition of hell to the western world. In the poem, Dante gives us his vision of going through hell, in a dream, describing descending the 9 circles, where each one corresponded to sin and different levels of punishment. After presenting himself to Hades at Hell’s Gate, Dante goes to the Valley of the Winds where he meets Minos, a demigod son of Zeus, and the Phoenician princess Europe, responsible for judging sinful souls. Inspired by Dante’s Inferno, Minos is a premium product for strong absinthe lovers.
