Re: Absinthe ordering sites
I had some in Japan on my 23rd b-day. 2 shots of it, along with some tequilla shots and long islands. I didn't really feel any different then any other time, but maybe it was because I had other alcohols as well that lessoned the absinthes effects

Re: Absinthe ordering sites
is that stuff just same as everclear? i've never heard of it, but i'm interested.

Re: Absinthe ordering sites
The thing about it is that it's not a normal hallucinogen.
I've done boatloads of acid, some shrooms, and a ton of other hallucinogens that I'm sure none of you have even heard of.....but absinthe is so different....I'd say it's more of a deleriant than a hallucinogen. I didn't like it at all. |
Re: Absinthe ordering sites
last year i attened canada lol we went there to basically drink all week end me and my friend and we did, i think i gave u a good webpage before paul dont i dont remember which one it was. i had 6 shots of the stuff in canada along with many others all night but it was like a different drunk feeling almost like being drunk and high at the same time, just kinda trippy, but the real more potent stuff is in Europe. its not forsale anywhere in the U.S. but can be bought as long as its not for retail.

Re: Absinthe ordering sites
So can you actually get it in the states? Is there some kind of website that will import it or something?
I've wanted to get my hands on this for a long time, but I haven't been able to. |
Re: Absinthe ordering sites
It's illegal in the states, and in Europe the legal limit is 10mg/kg which isn't really that much...so you either need to make it yourself, or have connections.
Also, it's banned in Belgium, Switzerland, Italy, and France.... |
Re: Absinthe ordering sites

The trip has to do with the amount of thujone in the liquor. |

Re: Absinthe ordering sites
like ive said before, i talk from experience, ive taken absinth and plenty of it, poured my own and had it poured for me, the sugar instantly dissapears as soon as its into the absinth and stirred, you then blow it out and drink it, plain and simple.
|
Re: Absinthe ordering sites
:) I speak from experience as well...however I have only poured my own, but I know it's traditional to light up the spoon to caramelise the sugar.
|
Re: Absinthe ordering sites
I've also poured it, that's not how I did it or ever seen it done.

Re: Absinthe ordering sites
yea, actually i started doing some reading into it and found that the chemical trujone doesn't make you hallucinate, it was the combination of herbs that they used in the old recipes. heres some info.
Alcohol makes up the majority of the drink and is extremely high, between 45 percent and 85 percent, though there is no historical evidence that any commercial vintage absinthe was higher than 74 percent. Given the high strength and low alcohol solubility of many of the herbal components, absinthe is usually not imbibed "straight," but consumed after a fairly elaborate preparation ritual. Historically, there were five varieties of absinthe: ordinaire, demi-fine, fine, supérieure or Suisse (which does not denote origin), the latter of which was of a higher alcoholic strength than the former. The best absinthes contain 60 percent to 74 percent alcohol. It is said to improve materially with storage. In the 19th century absinthe, like much of the food and drink of the time, was occasionally adulterated by profiteers with copper, zinc, indigo plant, or other dyes to impart the green color, but this was never done by the best distilleries. Traditionally absinthe is poured into a glass over which a specially designed, slotted spoon is placed. A sugar cube is then deposited in the bowl of the spoon. Ice cold water is poured or dripped over the sugar until the drink is diluted 3:1 to 5:1. During this process, the components that are not soluble in water come out of solution and cloud the drink; that milky opalescence is called the "louche" (Fr. "opaque" or "shady"). A modern, more dramatic and potentially very hazardous "fire" ritual was invented by a Czech manufacturer, in which the sugar cube is drenched in absinthe then set on fire. Water is then added to drown the fire and dissolve the caramelized sugar. Generally less water is added than the traditional method. Spurred by the temperance movement and winemakers' associations, absinthe was publicized in connection with several violent crimes supposedly committed under the direct influence of the drink, along with a general tendency toward hard liquor consumption due to the wine shortage in France during the 1880s and 1890s, effectively targeting absinthe's popularity as a social menace. Its critics said that it makes people crazy and criminal, it turns men into brutes and threatens the future of our times. Edgar Degas's 1876 painting, L'absinthe (The Absinthe Drinkers) (now at the Musée d'Orsay) epitomized the popular view of absinthe "addicts" as sodden and benumbed; Emile Zola described their serious intoxication in his novel L'Assommoir. Absinthe was banned from sale and production in most countries by 1915. The effects of absinthe have been described by artists as mind opening, and even hallucinogenic and by prohibitionists as turning good people mad and desolate. Both are exaggerations. Sometimes called "secondary effects", the most commonly-reported is a "clear headed" drunk feeling and thujone was said to be the cause. The placebo effect and individual reaction to the herbs makes these secondary effects very subjective and minor compared to the psychoactive effects of alcohol |
