"Absinthe has a high alcohol volume (usually 50-70%). It's a unique tasting liquor infused with a plethora of flavors. Absinthe's unique color comes from the chlorophyll in the herbs. Of these herbs, one in particular is responsible for Absinthe's popularity: Wormwood."

Yes really. Wormwood causes insanity you fucking retard. Certain brands do claim to contain it so as they're sen as 'harcore' but they actually don't.

it's easy to get pussy shit that won't do anything...that's how they usually make it now. You have to get the bottles with atleast 35 mg of thujone in it.

the stuff in the 19th century had around 100 mg, so if you have to cash, I would pick that up...since that's the kind of absinthe that made it notorious. You can't really speak of absinthe unless you have tried it because that is the original.

As I'm sure you've seen in the links that have been posted, yes, there is wormwood in it still. And yes, Fecalgroin is a moron.

Yeah, if it good shit (good being strong), you'll need some sugar and water. If you can stomach it neat, it's not strong enough.

Well in general...if you're drinking a 70% alcohol, you shouldn't be doing it for the taste.

maybe little shit like 70-80 proof vodka's, whiskey's, rums, etc.
But you can't tell me that stuff like 151 straight doesn't taste like shit.

as long as it doesn't taste like licorice, it's tolerable.
100 proof is the lowest i go
