Groovy.

Now then...uh, is this stuff legal? I mean, ya don't see it in liquor stores...

I'm curious, and I must try this probably over-glorified beverage.

It is not allowed to sell Absinthe within the US of A.
I haven't heard of anyone having trouble ordering it from a foreign country though.
Pick wisely...

what he said. it's not legal to sell it. nothing about buying.

i got mine a couple of times from http://www.absintheonline.com/acatalog/Jade.html

(the reason it's legal to buy and not sell is because it falls under FDA regulations, not DEA or ATF.)

Look to your neighborhood liquor supplier, not the local corner store. Brown Derby comes to mind. I have a bottle of Absenthe, made with petite wormwood. You get the taste pretty much and well trashed from drinking it, but no hallucinations.

I pay close to 60 a bottle. Come to think of it, I need to go and get another one. The nearest place I can find it is about 30 min away.

I just brought back a bottle I purchased in Amsterdam. It is made with wormwood and other herbs such as anise, per the bottle lable. I don't know if I brought it to America legally, seeing as how customs missed seeing it when they went through my bags.

As others have said, you can buy it online, but where is the fun in that?

Liquors De France is usually a bit better than Fee Vert. All their absinthe is pretty good, and they guarantee delivery.

I completely agree. We've gotten amazing bottles from Liqueurs De France.

Do NOT buy any bright green absinthe or any czech impostors. Nothing sold over the counter in Canada is real and it tastes like mouthwash.

Buy the real thing or just stick with Pernod.

I really like Kubler myself. For the past few years, and after a 90 year ban, French and Swiss companies have been allowed to manufacture and sell absinthe again, and it has greatly improved the quality of the liqueurs available.
Heck, there is now an absinthe bar in Paris. Life is gooooooood!

"Real" Absinthe never caused stuff like that. http://www.absinthe.se/default.asp?load=http://www.absinthe.se/facts/index.html

Aside from maybe the stuff the lower class got to drink which contained all sorts of nasty chemicals used to cheaply create the green coloring.
