Its a funny thing, because the first time I ever heard of absinthe was in college during my experimentation days. It was then that I learned that there was something in absinthe that would supposedly have some sort of psychoactive effect but there was one daunting problem and that was that I couldn't get my hands on a bottle to give it a try.
It is a true irony that now due to the Internet I can easily buy a bottle of absinthe but the problem now is that I am long through with college and experimenting with mind altering substances, save for some drinks with the fellas after work now and again.
A few weeks back while we were at our favorite watering hole tossing a few back together the topic of absinthe came up and it turned out that Dave the bartender had a bottle up on the shelf behind the bar. He told us that it was a brand of legal absinthe called “Lucid Absinthe” and that it didn't have any of what he called “hallucination stuff”in it.
He said that he was giving out free sample tastes and that some people liked it. He poured me a shot and produced a small squirt bottle of sugar water and squirted a little in it for me. It immediately became cloudy and Dave told me that it was supposed to do that. To be honest I really don't like black licorice, so it didn't do a whole lot for me and besides I'm a whiskey man.
One of the younger guys that works in shipping at work loved it though and couldn't get enough of it. That Friday my wife and I stopped in the place for a few drinks on our way out to dinner and she gave it a try and lo and behold she likes it. So I guess when it comes to absinthe, either you like it or your don't.
