I've been drinking tonight and I decided to make a purchase:

1 x Absinthe Original (absinthe01) = $95.83
------------------------------------------------------
Sub-Total: $95.83
Recorded Delivery (Shipping to US: 3.75 lb): $31.73
Total: $127.56

I can't wait

That's going to be fun when customs searches it, and you don't get it.

People ship it to the US all the time. I doubt we'll have a problem but we'll see.

Holy shit. Have fun with that stuff, dude.

Anyone here seen Euro Trip?

*TTRlovesMittens* · 12-03-2006, 09:57 PM

lol Keith, you're such a boozebag

Although, I would maybe try the louche, you have the spoon right?

***Keith*** · 12-03-2006, 10:07 PM

Nah we didn't get a spoon. Hopefully it won't be too bitter, if it is we'll find a way to get the sugar to dissolve without it. I've never had it before so I don't know if I'll even like it. If I do, then I'll probably pick up a spoon.

***Keith*** · 12-04-2006, 05:29 PM

I went ahead and bought spoon just in case. I don't want my night to be ruined

lol my friend (drinks alot, she's a total alchoholic) drank some absynth last summer and got completely trashed after one shot.

**jammitch!** · 12-04-2006, 07:10 PM

Warning: may cause barstools to try to eat you (so I hear).

Congratulations. I hope you enjoy your foray into absinthe.

(after looking up your purchase) Whoa! Good luck with that stuff. Czech absinthe is generally quite strong, but can be quite tasty! Just be sure to stay away from Hills or almost any blue colored brands. You might want to check out LFD for future purchases. They have some of the best commercial quality absinthe including Jade, probably the closest you can get to how Absinthe was really made during the height of its popularity.

blackpants: Unless your friend is a complete lightweight, one shot should be no worse than say a shot of Bacardi 151. You might feel pretty good after the one shot, but you shouldn't be "completely trashed".

***Keith*** · 12-04-2006, 07:50 PM

Thanks, I'll look into LFD next time.

A lot of today's absinthe doesn't have a lot of wormwood in it, unfortunately, how was yours?

Listen to some Nurse With Wond while you're indulging.

Dead serious. A lot of their stuff was written for this sort of thing.
