My Review of Lucid Absinthe

<h1>My Review of Lucid Absinthe</h1>Author: <a title="Charise Frasier" href="http://www.articlesbase.com/authors/charise-frasier/42224.htm">Charise Frasier</a> 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. I had read a few reviews on the net that only left me confused and wanting to try it myself. 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.

How they can tell the difference is beyond me, because after all every one of the best Russian vodkas is made from distilled potatoes. Another bartender where I work provided the bottle and it was a group of us at work that gathered around to try it. To tell the truth the bottle was real catchy with two three dimensional green eyes that looked out at me as I looked at it.

After it was poured into the glasses I was able to give it a close inspection and saw that it had aromatic oils floating on the surface as other brands of absinthe I have tried also had. At 124 proof, it definitely had the kick that a great absinthe is supposed to have and as far as taste was concerned it tasted just like black licorice as I recall the other absinthes I have tried tasting of.

It was a bright light green and the aficionado that was there said it was lighter green then other absinthes that he had seen. This was OK with me, because I can do without the artificial coloring anyway. Also, the fact that it didn't contain thujone was OK with me also, because when I relax for a few drinks I can do without the pink elephants. So all in all, I found it to be just fine and so did everyone else that was there to try it.

After some experimenting during my college years in the eighties, I have completely given up on on everything save for a cocktail now and again with my wife in the evenings.

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.
