    Absinthe was illegal here until not so long ago.
    I don't think it's as strong now as it used to be.
    We had murky green and then red absinthe at his birthday. No idea what the difference was, but it was very strong.

    Ah...I see...It´s weird though, with all the stuff that IS available here, to ban absinthe.
    What does it taste like?

    No idea what it tastes like cause you just downed it? :mrgreen::mrgreen:
    So it´s not illegal here? Thanks for that!

    I remember there was a discussion here not so long ago, politicians being worried about the use of absinthe...
    Though there´s only a very small group of people drinking it :roll:

    i believe the original absinthe had wormwood in it which is hallucinogenic, the stuff you get now has less alcohol and no wormwood. it's not the same thing, really...

    ...though having just read the Wikipedia page i might be talking guff... :lol:
