In 2007 the first legally available absinthe has been approved for sale in the United States. These brands must pass TTB testing, which is performed by the Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry method[70] and TTB considers a product to be thujone-free if the FDA's test measures less than 10ppm (equal to 10mg/Kg) thujone.[71]
 
 
 
The real thing is legal in the U.S. again.
 
Im going to attempt to find a place here in Dallas to try it out.
 
I've had some friends order the real deal online. Not too impressive although they said it was a different kind of drunk. They weren't hallucinating (SP?) or anything.

 
that stuff has been in the store for a while...
i dont think its the same as what you are thinking though...
I knew the fake stuff has, but is this not something else with the good stuff in it?

If not //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

 
We got some of the real stuff from Czechoslovakia last year. I dont ever remember any tripping, but at 150 proof the drunk comes on quickly

Did you drop the powder stuff in it? I know nothing about the drink I just know you pour some powder substance in it and nah nah land //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

 
You're supposed to pour it over sugar and let it dissolve, otherwise you can't stand the taste. Its like a mix of Jaeger and Everclear.
Thats not true.

The sugar is not there just to mask the taste. Ice cold water is poured over the sugar to create a milky solution to bring out natural flavors in a process called the louche.

The addition of water is important, causing the herbs to "blossom" and bringing out many of the flavors originally overpowered by the anise.

Please educate yourself a bit more.
