We are delighted to welcome Brian Robinson to our Maison Absinthe family, as editor of absinthe magazine. Brian is highly respected throughout the absinthe and cocktail communities, not only for his reviews, but for his vast knowledge of alcohol and cocktails in general.

Brian has been editor and media liaison for the Wormwood Society since 2006, having reviewed over 300 absinthes to date. He has been featured in dozens of articles and television interviews concerning absinthe and its history.

In 2009, he won the Hotel Monteleone cocktail competition; a contest to create a signature cocktail for the famous Carousel Bar located inside the New Orleans hotel. He is also a spirit archaeologist for the Vintage Spirits Library located in the Columbia Room DC, which was named Best Bar in the USA in 2017.

Brian lives in suburban Washington DC (USA) with his wife and sons, where he runs an award-winning financial planning firm. He enjoys cooking, cocktails, writing, drawing, reading and the occasional rugby match.
