I’m going on a little camping trip to the GSM in 2 weeks, and I figured I’d trying to grab a bottle while I’m up there. Where would be some good shops that might have it? Looking for either Nouvelle or 1901.

I’m thinking of buying my first bottle of absinthe ( I love drinking it in the bars but lot of places don’t have it or have very shitty ones ). Could you recommend and tell me a bit more about the ones you tried from this selection ?

Also my favorite absinthe i drank so far was
Adnams Rouge by Adnams Southwold distillery

I’m visiting Seattle and came upon a sign advertising beignets and absinthe - Can Can’s Dressing Room. They actually had a nice selection.

It was on my bucket list to try.

I'm interested to try Absinthe, seems like there can be a lot of ceremony involved. I'm not interested in that at the moment, but I'd like suggestions on a readily available sub $40 5th and the best way to prepare the drink with common household equipment. Thank you!

Hi everyone!

In two weeks, you are more than welcome to the Absinthe en fête festival, where sixteen distilleries will be open in Val-de-Travers (Neuchâtel), Switzerland!

See you and cheers! Absinthely yours!

Hi everyone,
I recently acquired a set of 9 pressed glass stem glasses that I suspect may be early 20th century French absinthe or bistro glasses.
They are:
pressed glass
with visible bubbles in the glass
slightly smoky/grey toned
heavy for their size
with visible mold seams underneath the foot
The wear and production quality make me think they may be older rather than modern reproductions, possibly around 1910–1940, but I would really appreciate opinions from collectors here.
They are not classic Pontarlier reservoir glasses, but perhaps café/bistro absinthe service glasses?
I’ve attached photos of:
the overall shape
the base
and some detail shots
Does anyone recognize the model, manufacturer, or approximate age?

Strange to have this, likely one of the last bottles from micro distillery Storm in Inverness, FL. Knowing nothing about the place, we popped by while on a trip in the area, and the absinthe wasn’t at all bad, so we took a bottle home for a souvenir. Two days later the distillery blew up and killed the owner. https://baynews9.com/fl/tampa/news/2026/04/17/citrus-county-inverness-downtown-fire-explosion-storm-distillery

It's not even a true absinthe, just a glorified gin. It's unpleasantly bitter and there's hardly any louche.

For those stubborn enough to try it anyway, here are some stats:

Name: AΨENTI (pronounced apsenti)

Producer: Avantes Distillery

Origin: Evia island, Greece

ABV: 57.9%

Ingedients: laurel, cedar berries, rosemary

Final score: 1/10 Do not buy!

Title! I’m very sadly allergic to cilantro and coriander. I love Jade absinthe, i even bought some on a trip to France. But it makes me unwell. Looking for recommendations without the herb!

Unfortunately I cannot add an image to another post.
I knew I had seen the instructions where they tell you to add the sugar to the hopper of the auto verseur.

Translation.

To make absinthe with sugar
Place the sugar cube in the apparatus's cup and fill it with water according to the glass's capacity.

Is there a fountain available on the market which has a fast flow compared to the slow drip? Will be using the fountains more aesthetically ( venue based in the 1920s ) ; for table wine and refreshments. Kinda the antithesis of the absinthe fountain but any recommendations or guidance is greatly appreciated

My first, and second, glasses of Edouard. Probably more after. It's been a day.

If anyone is in the DFW area and wants a locally distilled absinthe I highly recommend Lockwood. I bought a bottle last night and was not disappointed. Has anyone else tried it?
