Absinthe gets a bad rep, it was never that strong when the French banned it. It’s only the relaunched stuff that came out in the 90s which they pumped up to 80 odd percent for the marketing. And it’s never supposed to be drunk as a shot. It’s a nice drink if you like that pastis and that sort of thing I remember a little Japanese bar I would frequent that had a cocktail called AbuGinSky (Absinthe, gin and whiskey). That was onl the second strongest cocktail they served, "Dynamite" added some Polish spirit that IIRC was 90%... Tried a tiny sip of the Polish stuff neat one time and felt like it was evaporating as I drank it... Didn't dare try the neat full shot. I did Polish spirit once. Coughed up blood. |
