    Default For all you absinth drinkers...

    This is notoriously the strongest bottle of marketed absinth in production (by drug content). It boasts 100mg of Thujone which is over triple what some of the strongest absinths carry. Most bottles in the UK (AFAIK) all have under 10mg!

    This is THE stuff to get if you wanna see the green fairies, and take advantage of the low dollar!

    $300 for 2 bottles is an absolute bargain, I have hunted for this particular bottle before and cheapest I found was £125 each.

    I hope someone enjoys this, it is seriously known as the best absinth on the open market!

    I don't drink, but surely customs won't let this or any alcohol into the UK bought in this manner?

    Well they say they ship worldwide and I have got such drink into the country for a mate. I wasn't aware its illegal as I am getting a shipment of cannabis vodka soon...

    What do you mean in this manner? Its being bought in the same manner tht most things are, off an online shop. Ebay Germany sells stupid amounts of absinth worldwide.

    As you know it is frowned upon.

    Absinthe is not brewed like beer, you have to have pure spirit to start with, its then made by soaking herbs in the spirit, then distilling it again - so you will need a still.


    For top info on distilling:
    http://homedistiller.org/

    This gives oodles of technical stuff and has recipies for many of your favourite tipples.

    For Recipies and instructions specifically for Absinthe go to:
    http://www.feeverte.net/recipes.html

    The rest of the site has loads of info:
    http://www.feeverte.net/

    Hows that?

    Blimey, i've had the 35mg absinthe bottles, but 100 just sounds a bit over the top.

    Ahh, gotcha, Well it should come from the EU so not a problem

    Basically you are not going out of your way to break the law, this stuff isn't availiable in the UK! It's usually shipped from the EU (never known it not to be) so would have thought this is too rather than sent to US to stock, then here.

    The only thing would be not paying appropriate taxes, although you might have already paid them :s not sure what happens about taxing imported goods from the EU, all I know is I import stuff all the time (personal single purchases, not bulk) and haven't had to pay extra duty or tax on any of it.

    This is from an American website, but absinthe is banned over there.

    The absinthe probaly isn't in the US, it would be dropshiped from the EU and although it is illegal to sell/have it in the US I doubt there is much the police over there can do if you sell and ship to/from countries where it is legal and keep profit for yourself.

    And as for the baccy question, it is only iffy if you order over 200 cigarettes. You can import 200 without any problems as that is the legal import amount as it's far more likely to be for personal use.
