Great! Now the Old Absinthe House in New Orleans can live up to its name!

I've had Absinthe twice, and can't say its my favorite drink in the world. Give me more Grappa!

”If you drink three bottles, you are going to do something stupid.”

Drink three bottles, you’ve done something stupid.

From what I've read, it tastes nasty.

I've also read that genuine cornmash white lightning is now available under-the-counter in some of Manhattan's finer taverns.

The same temperance movement that lead to prohibition first went after Absinthe.

one thing is certain: "If you drink three bottles, you are going to do something stupid."

It only takes half a bottle of jagermeister to arrive at the same result.

What a relief. There’s only this one bottle left here, and on the label it sez, “best if used by September 1901.” ;’)

But despite years of research discrediting the transcendental effects, new bottles can be sold in the U.S. only if they are classified as thujone-free.

Not really worth drinking then....

Whenever I hear “absinthe” I think about “For Whom the Bell Tolls”. What a great classic that is!
