About Absinthe

December 19th, 2007

Since childhood, we have been hearing about a drink called Absinthe, even read about it a lot. Our curiosity could not be fulfilled as it was banned but our peers regaled about the Green Goddess as they called Absinthe alcohol and we felt it was something like mythology.

Recently, we found out that it is in the market, available for all! Once again there will be poets and painters, great writers and intellectuals like the legendary Oscar wilde, Vincent Van Gogh, Mark Twain, Baudelaire, Monet, Verlaine, Pablo Picasso and many others; drinking Absinthe liquor and writing or painting about them too, for the above said personalities favored this bitter-sweet tasting aphrodisiac drink, lovingly called the green fairy or the green goddess.

There are absinthe kits available for those who wish to try it at home, but it is a skill which few people have mastered, better to purchase a bottle at the shop or order online absinthe than risk having a brew not fit for consumption. This much controversial absinthe green liquor was banned as there was a hue and cry about it, saying it distorted the absinthe drinkers mind which is untrue, absinthe has been used as a medicinal drink long back when it cured abdominal pains, during menstrual periods and helped cure jaundice, acted as antiseptic and was in great demand at that time. It is said that a doctor, Henri Louis started a distillery, for the sole purpose for curing his patients, in Switzerland. Later, it spread like a jungle fire and people of every country, every race, rich or poor, longed for it and made it a ritual drink during cocktails.

Absinthe was prepared in a ceremonial, ritualistic way, while an absinthe spoon (of either brass or steel made, with inbuilt holes for water to drop) was held over an absinthe glass, having a broad base, for measurement, with a sugar cube on top of the absinthe spoon, while chilled water was gently poured over the sugar cube, melting it unto the bitter liquid of absinthe, forming a cloudy like forming in the glass. It is then drunk. However, we need not bother about such delicate preparation in our hectic days but can purchase a bottle of absinthe liquor anywhere, anytime, as it is back in the market for all.

Try its different varieties by ordering online or purchase a bottle to send, as a gift to your loved ones, for it has been proven that absinthe is NOT harmful. Now it is our own Absinthe world and we can sample it almost anywhere in the world. We can enjoy this luxury sitting at home besides our loved ones, this Christmas. This age-old absinthe, bittersweet, queen rules over our world today.

Absinthe the best

GOOD NEWS! For absinthe lovers all over the world, absinthe is back to stay forever!
After an epoch, absinthe original is here for those who love the traditional way of celebrating. Some who do not know about absinthe drink or the green goddess, (its nickname) this is a great opportunity to learn about it in details.

Absinthe is a unique and ceremonial drink whose base is alcohol but made from the extract of wormwood, and also some natural selected herbs like aniseed angelica hyssop and prepared with great care. It is a drink, which once drunk, cannot be forgotten.

This mild and euphoric alcoholic drink is prepared with a gentle and ritualistic way with chilled water poured gently, drop by drop over a sugar cube, on the absinthe spoon, which is held above the herbal preparation that is absinthe genuine in an absinthe measure glass and is drunk as a cocktail. However, one has to develop a taste for it to really enjoy this drink, as it is bitter in taste.

Most absinthe drinkers claim it is as mild as tea or coffee and has some medicinal qualities and is totally harmless. Its taste is similar to the Turkish raki or Lebanese’s arak both of which have a taste like licorice. The absinthe drinkers claim that it is unique as it makes the drinker creative and has aphrodisiac quality. The great poets and painters wrote and painted about absinthe, the green goddess as they fell in love with this special drink of nature. There were controversies as usual for absinthe had the public in its grasp, so some mishappenings that occurred over that period led the ignorant people to raise a voice against the absinthe alcohol which had to be banned unduly.

However, those who had fallen in love with this green fairy could not forget its taste and effects and hankered for it, mentioning its potentiality over the years to those who had missed the chance of tasting absinthe. Now the resurrection of this drink has been greatly approved all over the world, for absinthe is back to stay now, being the supreme queen, reigning over its people alike all over the world. Even in the US it is not banned to drink absinthe nor possess a bottle of green absinthe but is banned from selling it.
