Is this an epidemic? My last two posts are about absinthe. (Oh click my name! Click my name!!) I didn’t do Manson’s (didn’t know he had one and if I did I wouldn’t have had it anyway). I tried “Lucid” which is a French-made brand created in the same equipment designed by that Eiffel dude.

It isn’t something I’d do all the time but it’s not too bad. The presence of thujone (a product of wormwood) is what people worried about, but I can’t see that being anything. The fact that a pure shot of it is 65% alcohol might explain some of the behavior better, yeah.

It’s my understanding that you have to adjust the levels. I used 1 shot of absinthe to 4 shots of ice water over 2 sugar cubes to get a taste that I could honestly say was “ok”, which I adjusted from the 1-5-1 I used in the (hic) first glass. It was on my “bucket list” so, y’know, what the hell.

It’s fine and I can see adding it to my cabinet, but I wouldn’t go out of my way for it.

Well I’ve tried some very high-end Absinthe, and it was vile beyond the ken of mortals. Seriously, it turned my mouth into a place where old spiders go to die. It must have gotten me drunk, though, because I foolishly tried another kind, and it was just as bad.

The people at La Fee Absinthe, though, are very nice. When I wrote a post about Mansinthe, they actually offered my readers a discount to taste for themselves! And they couldn’t have been more polite about it.

Who’s impugning the beverage? All I said was that Manson’s version of absinthe sucked. And the drink’s reputation for brain-rotting was enough to get it banned just about everywhere by 1920, even though its alleged evil was almost pure media hype.

Now that I think about it, it’s the perfect liquor for Marilyn Manson.

Check your facts before trying (and failing) to impugn the beverage. YES, Manson is a total douche who Hot Topicked his way to success (and subsequent obscurity), but the non-Manson varieties are quite good and have zero psychoactivity except for what ALL high alcohol drinks do to you.
