  1. I agree with the previous analysis, but want to add something that I found in my own journey to getting my absinthe approved. If you're experimenting outside of the usual ingredients of traditional absinthe, it's possible to tip the scale of thujone in the absinthe. I tested with Cedar Leaf Tip, which contains more thujone than wormwood, though I wasn't able to find clear amounts before "hoping for the best" and sending it in for TTB testing. Came back 56ppm or so thujone in the absinthe. I swapped that ingredient out and passed no problem. As long as your only ingredient containing thujone is the wormwood, I doubt you'll have much a problem. Be mindful about other ingredients that contain thujone however (rosemary, cedar leaf tip, so on).
