Re: Absinthe.
You can take a pass on the Lucid and the Kubler. Nothing you're going to find in the US will have any thujone. Sorry, basically absinthe is still illegal.

Re: Absinthe.
Its very easy to obtain here in any liquor store, a bit pricey, ive read alot of bad things about it but have always wanted to try it. Would be interested to hear about peoples experiences, good or bad.

Re: Absinthe.
The best I have had of the current stuf is from Ted Breaux.
His blends are top IMO.

Re: Absinthe.
I believe you can still get the hallucinogenic real mccoy in France somewhere but as far as the stuff that prompted Van Gogh to cut off his ear....can't get it here.

 In the "spirit" of the jungle I did what I thought was the next best thing, gather information for the OP. Believe or not it took me a bit of time and effort to find/gather those thread titles and links and compose the post. I realize it is not "rocket science" but along the way I learned a bit myself. In the past I have been applauded for such posts, this is the first time anyone has ever called into question my motives. Oh well, life goes on. At this point it's just water under the ducks back.

Re: Absinthe.
The current legal stuff is just licorice flavored booze. High octane booze at that. If you have contacts in British Columbia you can get the good stuff from there. There's no limit to thujone content from that area of Canada. This really only applies to BC because although other areas of Canada allow varying levels of thujone, it's minimal compared to the real stuff.
I've had some Swedish absinthe (might not have been manufactured in Sweden, but was shared with a Swede). It was very good. Not a real crazy drunk psychedelic experience, just an awesome buzz. Go for the good stuff!
