Please don't think I have ever said that there's anything WRONG with absinthe: I am a big fan and love to drink it. Quite a few bottles came out of that shop with me!Pinkyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11731123705750204700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29025151.post-44684040052968248982009-09-24T06:10:52.444+10:002009-09-24T06:10:52.444+10:00The shop "Vert d'Absinthe" has been ...The shop "Vert d'Absinthe" has been open for years and is fantastic! There's actually nothing wrong with absinthe, and everything's wrong with your 2007 comment: "Everyone knows the story about how it was banned due to its high wormwood content and therefore extremely hallucinogenic properties."<br />Absinthe is <b><i>not</i></b>hallucinogenic, and it was not banned for its wormwood content, but rather as a result of (1) the temperance movement and (2) a smear campaign by the wine industry. Real absinthe is a fantastic apertif-- soothes the gut and lights up the palate-- but now, as in the 19th Century, there are plenty of crap products parading around as absinthe that are absolute garbage.salsahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03691727863273668045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29025151.post-55946891806460366662009-09-24T02:44:30.189+10:002009-09-24T02:44:30.189+10:00It's here:
