Absinthe Explained… Recommended Brands … Now You Know Why This Site Looks Like It Does…
I posted my take on The Mystery Of The Green Menace way back in April of ’07… It was back on the old site and would’nt show up in a search for Absinthe… Anyway… I’ve been playing with the Green Fairy for years…
And yes… I’ve still got both my ears!… But not all my marbles…
It seems that The Green Fairy is making a comeback…
Here’s a decent video on how to prepare Absinthe for drinking… If you can get past the stupid “spooky” music… The ritual of releasing the Green Fairy never gets old… You can actually see the “change” take place at about :50 on the video.
NOW IT’S LEGAL TO BUY IN THE USA… AFTER ABOUT 100 YEARS OF PROHIBITION.
I will warn you though that the websites that the HuffPo article directs to for purchase of the stuff are pretty Ooky sites that sell substandard stuff…
You want good Absinthe… Go HERE… or HERE … or look for these brands near you…
And for God’s Sake stay away from any Czech or Polish stuff!! .. You’re likely to get a bottle of chemicals… I tried some red absinthe once that left me with tremors for a week… REAL ABSINTHE COMES FROM SWITZERLAND… And France… and sometimes Germany…
You will get access to the finest stuff in the world at Liqueurs de France and will not be steered wrong at Alandia
If you’re curious … And keeping in mind that the exchange rates are murder these days… I’d recommend:
Clandestine 53 La Bleue (106°) if you’re on a budget…This is a fine, fine introductory Absinthe that has the distinction of flashing blue sparkles when you add water… I’ve got 2 and 1/2 bottles of this stashed away… Around $75
Jade Verte Suisse 65 (130°) if you can swing it… This is high end Absinthe… Fantastic flavor… Special occasion stuff… I just finished the bottle a week ago… Gotta buy more (Mama Likes It!!)… Around $110
The Matter-Luginbühl, Kallnacher at (162.6°) is my absolute favorite though… Unfortunately out of stock at this time… And me with only about 1/2 bottle left!.. Around $60
..This stuff is also very nice…
Absinthe Duplais Verte (144°) is another fine brand… I’ve got about 1/3 bottle left…Around $50
This Un Emile (136°) is a decent drink… About what you should call baseline for grading Absinthe… There’s always at least one full bottle of this stuff around here….Around $75
If you want to take a chance you can go to BevMo and try this stuff…
While it is real absinthe… and it is 106°… I didn’t like it much… A little too licorice-y for me… But …You can go to your local BevMo and get it for $56 for a liter… But Don’t Let This Stuff Define Absinthe for You… Good Absinthe has a taste that you’ll never forget.
Despite the cool bottle
This Lucid (124°) stuff will have to wait until someone else buys a bottle and pours me a couple… I haven’t heard anything good from any of my Absinthe drinking correspondents… If you decide to give it a try… Drop me a line… You can get this at BevMo too… But at $66 a bottle… It’s steep for a chance.
If I wasn’t drinking Bourbon tonight… I might be tempted to take a short flight…
This Little Green Fairy Ain’t Tinker Bell… It’s Her Wild Older Sister!
