Hi. My name is Allen for Expert Village. And today I'm going to discuss a controversial and banned alcohol commonly known as absinthe. As they came up with a filtration process that works very much the same way. And it's a carbon micron filter that works to get out all the impurities and works very very much like the distillation process. It's something very unique to the Green Devil brand. I've seen it with a couple of other brands, but the overall effect is very, very close and very comparable to the normal absinthe kit or the absinthe product that you would buy maybe on the shelves or consume overseas. And it's a little bit hard to see, but it's a very small, very small kit right here. That right there is your basic micron filter. And that has a carbon based micron filter and it comes with a kit when you purchase it. And that's like I said, it's going to do what you need it to do and make sure you get out all those impurities. And keep you away from all the dangers, the legal issues and everything else that would go if you went to try to distill it. Which is just a bad idea.
