Historical documents on absinthe
Absinthe, a liquor or aromatized spirit, the characteristic flavoring matter of which is derived from various species of wormwood (Artemisia absinthium). Among the other substances generally employed in its manufacture are angelica root, sweet flag, dittany leaves, star-anise fruit, fennel, and hyssop. A colorless “alcohólate” is first prepared, and to this, the well-known green color of the beverage is imparted by maceration with green leaves of wormwood, hyssop, and mint. Inferior varieties are made by means of essences, the distillation being omitted.

Did you know that...?
There are two varieties of absinthe, the French and the Swiss, the latter of which is of a higher alcoholic strength than the former. The best absinthe contains 70 to 80% of alcohol (140 to 180 proof). It is said to improve very materially by storage. There was a popular belief to the effect that absinthe was frequently adulterated with copper, indigo or other dye-stuffs to impart the green color, but, in fact, this is now very rarely the case. There is some reason to believe that excessive absinthe-drinking leads to effects which are specifically worse than those associated with over-indulgence in other forms of alcohol.
Absinthe Thujone Bitter & Gold Set
Their quality products and outstanding customer service are second to none. There was a delay in shipping which was stated on the web site so I knew about it before placing my order and they still kept me apprised of the status of my shipment from the day I ordered to the day it was delivered. I would highly recommend Absinthe Original to anyone who currently enjoys Absinthe or who would like to give it a try.
I recently ordered & received this gift set. Let me first say love it! Shipped fast, I received it withing 2 days of order. I will totally recommend it!!!<br />
This is an excellent gift set, with the highest quality absinthe I have ever had, much better then that Hills or Pernod crap they sell at the liquor store. Shipping was not as timely as I had expected and actually came a full week before the estimated arrival date, as was so well packed you could not break the bottles even if you tried. Also I thought it a point to mention that unlike the previous reviewer I DID receive the free bottle and spoon. All in all I am very happy with this purchase and will definitely be buying more from this site in the near future."<br />
First off just let me say that the shipping was exceptional, and got here in 7 days from the day it was shipped. Every bottle neatly wrapped in bubble wrap and then all together wrapped again, making the contents nearly unbreakable. That having been said, the only thing I can say about Absinthe for those who haven't tried it, is that its like drinking pure alchohol with a hint of Licorice. The first sip goes down and gives you this instantaneous buzz, and I seriously recommend that you mix it with something else because it's Inexpressibly strong. Anyway I got the package and opening it, to my suprise I saw the 3 bottles but not the spoon or the Staroplzenecky Absinthe that the gift set offered. Not a big fuss seeing that they were free to begin with. Just thought that it would be good to have an actual review stating the truth and not the usual "Absinthe Original Rocks!". Anyway quality-wise, Absinthe Original is top notch and I can see my-self getting blitzed with my friends in the near future."<br />
