P.S. - without the Gatorade for dilution, your chest tenses up like someone just punched you 10 inches below the chin... so make sure you dilute it with something.

I use gatorade fruit punch b/c 1) it looks kinda normal & 2) it tastes decent.

I thought so too, but I tried removing everything else except Absinthium 1792(that I assume 'Moral Hazard' had delivered to him) and still same msg

Strange, that's the site I placed my last order with. Do you have any friends in the US... there is no restriction on having it delivered to the US... your friend could then send it on to you (have them lable the box as "auto parts" so that it won't be inspected by customs). Either that or try one of the other sites... there are a lot.

I remember doing a bit of research on absinthe, and basically finding out that the whole concept of it is just overhyped bollocks. You need like 30mg of the Thujone in order to feel the "proper" effects of Absinthe, and nobody legally stocks that (and if they do, good luck getting it into Canada). The legal absinthe has like 10mg MAX, so int he end, it's just really strong alcohol. Get a bottle of Bacardi 151, and you'll get the same goal with none of the hassles.

As I stated before... the effect of thujone is cumulative. You need to drink it regullarly for a few days to weeks in order to acheive the maximum effect (this is not to say you need to be drunk off your ass for days on end... just a few drinks every evening... start on a Sunday and when you drink Saturday night the fairy will be in full force).

I'm guessing there's all kinds of info online...Erowid and the like.

personal report? did you like it?

I'm a very big fan. That said, the effects as illustrated in Euro Trip are grossly exagerrated. The "green fairy" is really more like a mild acid trip as far as visuals go and closer to opium for euphoria.

BTW, I've had King of Spirits and Absinthium 1792 (neither are sold here). King of Spirits is stronger but not as good (if taste is a concern for you), Absinthium 1792 is a little less strong (which is still really fuckin' strong) but tastes much better. Try absinth24.net, they have King of Spirits, Absinthium 1792, and Thul Red. I've orded from them before, they're reasonable and reliable. It will take 4-6 weeks for your order to be delivered.

Come to think of it, I should make another order.

You weren't joking when you said the prices were reasonable.
I think I will be placing an order myself when I get home from work today. 38$ US for a bottle, compared to the 100 Euros I spent just on 5 shots of it this summer.. yeah, I'm not complaining. haha

Thanks for the info Craig

EDIT: It says they cannot send to Canada
