Got my Absinth
 

I finally got the bottle of Absinth I ordered last month from the Czech Republic. I smelled it and it smells alot like liquorice.

So, for the Absinth drinkers here, what is the best way to drink this stuff? Poured over a sugar cube?

yup

pure or with coke...

btw.. how much % alcohol does czech absinth have?

yes over a sugar cube,
there isnt alot of shit to mix it with,

look up sambooka recipes, and mix it with the same thing, the flavor is very very similar.

bleh i hate black licorise, and i cant belive u had to order that stuff from czech republic, in canada we have it at most local liqour stores.

and original absinthe is from France. u should have got it from there although im sure there isnt a huge diff.

Uh come on, we all know this isnt real absinth right?

SEGuru and I have a funny story about Absynthe.....I think you just shoot it over ice or straight up! You may want to put some sugar on a lemon wedge!!!!!

How did you get interested in this drink? You probably know the dubious past this liquor has......

bottoms up!

ive gotten the real deal from europe before... mix it in with a little bit of sugar and water :)

55% by volume. I got the cheapy bottle.

I shoulda just gone up to Canada and got some, I wonder if they would have let me back over the boarder with it. They shipped it to me as "medicinal oinment"

I never tried absinth before... how does it feel?

here we have the real absinthe, just look to make sure its made out of worm wood and u got real absinthe, and for u idiots thats wat makes u supposedly "hallucinate" from the drink although i never have.

"our" absinth has got 66%.....

I fugure maybe ill cut my ear off and become famous

The stuff you guys buy is alcohol with some cheap extracts (is that the correct word) from so called absinth.
We have a bar here in Amsterdam that serves that stuff. Its digusting, expensive and it makes you feel a little bit funny.

A simply joint is stronger.

I have mine here - 85%

85?? holy fuck.
can you show a pic?

The bottle I got

Thats the stuff I got, same exact bottle on the front page.


If its Czech it can't be a scam can it :1orglaugh

my bottle

I´m not at the office and have no camera here. The company that makes them is:

Wine & Spirit International Ltd
London - NW9 - 6LH - UK


When we inport them we take away the "paper" because if the police got you it is the same like drugs. JAIL!

Can´t drink 85%. I try and I didn´t feel my head the rest of that night.

Holy motherfuckeing shit... 39.95£!!!! I paid 22$ for mine =D

How much do you pay?

I hear that shit is trouble :winkwink:



Rip

This shit is for real men.... 1% Absinthe and 99% water. That is a perfect drink =) It´s a WARNING CAUTION text that says:

Don´t drink and drive. Add water before drinking. :1orglaugh

With shipping and all $50 bucks.

If I like this stuff I will just get it from the canuks, there not too far from me.

The traditional way to drink absinthe:

You're suppose to have an absinthe spoon, but you can do it this way as well. Poor about two shots of absinthe into a tumbler.

Take a teaspoon of sugar and poor a little absinthe on it. Light it on fire and let it burn until the sugar starts to caramalize. At that point, stick it into your tumbler and stir it around (be careful because the absinthe in the tumbler will light on fire). Let that burn for a second or two, blow it out, and down it!

Prepare to see pink elephants dancing around your room...

You better paint a lot between now and the time you drink it. :1orglaugh

Drink some and let us know how it is...if you can still type. :Graucho

It´s perfect! I paint a picture and didn´t stop until all my walls was in red with brown spots!
