Absinthe is the shiat! Tastes like crap, but is amazingly strong. a full bottle of jim beam and I'm still able to remember most of the night, 1/2 a bottle of Absinthe, and not only can I not remember the night I nearly passed out and got kicked out. I was also TOTALLY hammered 4 12 hours, not even starting to sober up. Didn't see anything tho ;( (the stuff I got was 14% [like the worm wood stuff]).

Get it, it rules, just don't drink 1/2 a bottle, drink a 1/4 for a awesome night, that you'll stand a chance of remembering (the person who had the other 1/2 passed out for 6 hours, lol)

did you have it the proper way though?

with the sugar cube and the proper spoon?


drench a sugarcube in absinthe, the 70% alcohol means you can light it, it caramelises the sugar, which runs through a spoon with holes in it into ice cold water on ice (takes edge off alcohol).


you are better off making the real stuff (think its illegal though), and i will quite happily make some up (hehe), if anyone can get me some wormwood oil?


czechs and spain still make it and export, but under restricted rules.

so the absinthe we get in shops is 1 - 30 ppm of thujone (hallucnegenic agent)

whereas the original stuff back in france in the 1900s was around 250 ppm!!



this means ure prolly going to die from alchohol poisoning before you get the "absinthe effect".


so for the fact that its only realy strong alcohol, im not bothering to try it, unless it was homemade (proper) stuff.

Yes 2 the spoon, yes 2 the sugar cube, yes 2 lighting it, it's strength was 65% in alochol, it didn't stay alight for very long, we soaked it for ages, and not for so long etc, tried various combos with lighting it (as one does when he has a full bottle). Speaking to a mate in QLD who has it a bit, he's never got it to light properly, and just stirs sugar in a glass.

I've heard wives tales it's illegal to get wormwood oil in2 au. Not sure on that one 1st hand by any means tho.

I did some hunting on the net, and around Sydney and AU, 14% thujone was the strongest i could find on, or offline.
