Absinthe Fever, How Long Will It Last? {Luxist}

Mar 27th 2008 3:00PM Real properly made absinthe has more to it than thujone.

In effect you are both half right. Proper absinthe contains thujone, anethole, fenchone, and a nervine. However most of the Czech stuff and the stuff for sale in the us are missing some or most of these other ingredients. I don't want to advertise any brands on here but I will tell you Kubler is the best you can get in America at the moment. However there will be better ones in no time.

You will know if you have real absinthe if: You don't get tired after drinking like normal, You are drunk but somehow still able to play chess, and the world looks really "clean" and bright. It is like drinking in a perfect world.

Cheers,
