God damn it....Hill's Absinth is so fucking gross...
If you want good absinthe then you need to try something from Jade
Unlike the hills stuff (which is neon/mouthwash green and doesn't louche at all) the Jade stuf is really nice and not bitter at all...
I could go into all the detail about tojuone (which 1800's absinthe didn't have much of at all) etc etc but you're probably bored already...
I'm going to keep chokeing down this stuff... for a while anyway....

Just comparing the two websites speaks volumes. I guess I was under the impression that absinthe was still outlawed in the US. Is that not true? If not, we should have a sit-down over a bottle & you can teach me about tojuone etc. I was glad to see on SGC that you'll be having a visit from Architectonic before too long. Good news.

Never tried the stuff. I'm interested though.
