So it's real absinthe, available for purchase on-line, but is that really legal to purchase here in the states?
There is just ONE Mansinthe -there is NO “sans wormwood” version!
Well, of course!


A Warning About That Link: When I went to copy the quote above, I was surprised to see that this page is full of links to some online casino, even though the text and links are not displayed. That makes me suspicious of what else might be embedded in that page. Be warned!

We've purchased Absinthe from the Czech Republic, but if I recall, they call it Absinth.

I don't think that any Absinthe has wormwood in it any more.

That's not what that suspicious web page is saying.

Apparently they are now allowed to have wormwood in the Absinthe, but the thujone level is smaller.

Just remember - absinthe makes the heart grow fonder.
