Do Real Men Drink Absinthe?

One of the many questions that pops up from time to time is if absenthe has often been referred to as the green “fairy” in the past is it OK for real men to drink it. The fact of the matter is that real men have been drinking absinthe for hundreds of years without ever experiencing any drop in their testosterone levels. In fact research has suggested that the term “ green fairy” was derived from the fact that absinthe has been known to have been used as an aphrodisiac.

The truth of the matter is that chicks love absinthe and with 80 proof alcohol and a healthy dose of psychoactive thujone, what real man wouldn't enjoy the company of chicks “gone wild” on absinthe. What about absinthe as a drink that real men can share with each other when they are involved in “male bonding”. In fact real men have been doing “man things” while they drink absinthe for hundreds of years now.

It is important to bear in mind that when absinthe was “discovered” in the late 1700s real men were “a dime a dozen”. This is because, back then life was hard and the world was a much more dangerous place. It was a time when men were men and sheep were scared, so real men didn't give much thought to it when they did man things like drink absinthe while they herded their frightened sheep.

After hearing that there was a new brand of absinthe that was actually cleared for sale in the U.S. I was determined to give it a try.

For some reason, most of the reviews seemed to focus exclusively on the fact that Lucid Absinthe contains alcohol that is distilled from fermented sugar beets.

By: Charise Frasier | 25/12/2007 | Wines & Spirits
Of all the alcoholic beverages that are available to be bought online only absinthe has any appreciable level of mystique. Its a fact that Mary Shelly wrote most all of “Frankenstein” between sips of the curious liquor.

A Complete Absinthe Review - Lucid Absinthe

By: Charise Frasier | 25/12/2007 | Wines & Spirits
Its a funny thing, because the first time I ever heard of absinthe was in college during my experimentation days. It was then that I learned that there was something in absinthe that would supposedly have some sort of psychoactive effect but there was one daunting problem and that was that I couldn't get my hands on a bottle to give it a try.
