another thread about Absinthe...

[SoreArms]

I was just reading an ad in an art mag from this place that claims to use the exact recipe used in the 1800's (when van gogh and all the other artists of that time used it). I'll check out the mag when I get home and post a link.

the mags website had a link

What Vectork39 said, there are about 3 types/grades of eurofunk.($100-$200)
I've done some experimenting, it's not about the alcohol, it's
the sort of metaphysical/etheric properties of the additives, (mostly toxic wormwood)
It opens the brow, or third eye chakra. It would be good for your liqour collection,
but i get sick of it fast, don't know how you could get addicted.

absinthe? get some vodka, go chase down some wormwood (which grows in the states) and steep the wormwood in the vodka. end result: absinthe

Yeah, it's a cultural icon amongst the goths and even some emo kids.

An Absinthe buzz was truly wierd for me. It was like an anti-weed feeling (which is odd, because the active ingredient in Wormwood is Thujone, which is molecularly similar to THC).

For me, it was like seeing all things as true and ugly. For the truth IS ugly, most of the time. However, I also felt disinhibited by the high alcohol content. So I didn't care.

Wierd, wierd experience.
