suffer fed just about anybody who attended ne2k4 absinthe...he had 2 different kinds, green absinthe and brown wormwood extract crap.... both of his were liquid extracts that u pour in liquor. stuff tasted ok and got u crunk..however effed had a kit that was actual materials u mix, it was SICK! that may have been because he mixed with everclear though, suffer mixed with vodka, which was a better idea.

i tried it in south africa. it was totally worth the rand, but i honestly can't remember how much it was anyway. i proceeded to get totally wasted that night, and the absinthe really started the night off with a bang! it tasted gross though. i hate the taste of licorice.

I've had some of the stuff you can buy here in Canada, $70 CDN for 750 ml. It's probably not the same stuff you get in the Czech Republic but it does have wormwood in it, which is supposedly the hallucinogenic ingredient. I've never gotten visuals off it, but it does get you drunk very quickly considering it's 70%.
I always mix it by putting a spoon with a couple sugar cubes over the cup, then pooring absinthe over the sugar. After that you light the sugar on fire and wait for it to caramalize, then stir it into the absinthe and drink. It's also great mixed with cranberry juice.

Absinthe... Absinthe is a green concoction that tastes like minty syrup. If you drink more than five shots it can be very harmful to your liver. You're also supposed to sip it like you do port. somehow that gives it a greater effect. Absinthe is legal to possess under U.S. federal law, but to buy and sell it are illegal. Absinthe is definately a different kind of drunk, I'll say. during one sitting I had three bar sized shots. I was seeing micro-vortexes and squiggly lines all across my vision, and then psychadelic colored ripples and waves, like the ocean, for several minutes... very cool visuals, but they were gone as quick as they came...

no the brown tasted the best...i think it was just a wormwood extract...the green kind had all the other stuff mixed in.

i had a friend who bought 7 (yes 7) bottles off Ebay, all different kinds, all unopenned. 3 were Czech the others i dont remember. We ssat around one night and killed an entire czech bottle between the 3 of us. Got horribly drunk, no real visuals at all, but it was a great energetic drunkeness. The only thing that was even close to "tripping" was i got a little hollow. You know, like getting filled with the void right before you trip, but nothing came of it.

You think? I always thought it tasted like anise/licorice.

I've tried it before at a friends house. We poured it in a spoon that had tiny holes in it and had sugar cubes on it. We also put a little water in it and it fizzed up a bit. It tasted sorta like black licorice, but i didn't have any effects.
