I've always wanted to try Absinthe, but the "real" kind is outlawed in the U.S.
I want to see the Green Fairy! My intent isn't really to trip out (although I'm open to new things!), I just want to have the real absinthe experience, with the sugar spoon and ice drip. It looks fun and exotic! (sake, on the other hand, I did not care for)
What are some good types of absinthe that I could try and track down? I know the "Absinte" stuff the sell in the states is not the real deal, and doesn't contain the "thujone" (sp?) that "real" absinthe does. Where to begin?
