I'm not really a drinker but a buddy of mine said that Absinthe gives you a mild body high like you would with a come up while on psychedelics, is this true? I am thinking of getting some just to try it out as in the past I loved the sedating effects of psychedelics
>>21920693>is this trueno. your friend is retarded.
>>21920693They take out the psychoactive ingredient in most countries. You'll have to import it from like Spain or wherever they still make it the old school way.
>>21920697>Absinthe>import it from like Spainholy retard
>>21920697>They take out the psychoactive ingredient in most countriesthis is a lie to be able to sell the stuff.>>21920693it's carnival juice.imbibe at your own risk.do not listen to rob zombie while drinking it.
>>21920730>this is a lie to be able to sell the stuff.true, but the amount of thujone is in safe levels and won't cause hallucinations.
>>21920730>Carnivàle 2003-5only reason why i've tried the drink, great show.>>21920740it never did, the proto-hippy-hipster degens were just alcohols drinking questionable quality spirits on par with bathtub gin or moonshine
>>21920776>were just alcohols*alcoholics
>>21920693It’s not true, your buddy is a suggestible faggot.
ah yes, the sedating effects of psychedelics
>>21920693>is this true?No. The chemical in absinthe that supposedly does this is thujone, but thujone has an extremely low volatility (it's an oil, not an alcohol) and doesn't evaporate well at the temperatures used to distill alcohol, so almost none of it enters the distillate.Fun fact: sage and oregano have lots of thujone, sage oil is roughly 20% thujone and was never banned.
>>21920693You aren’t going to be getting any real absinthe with thujone unless it’s some moonshine shit in rural Eastern Europe.If you want to have the real thing, however, it is legal to grow your own wormwood. You could do that and then add it to store bought “authentic style” absinthe and get something similar to the real thing. I guess it’d be like dry hopping a beerCheck if it’s considered invasive in your state. If it is you need a container and not in ground
>>21920940>absinthe>Eastern Europeholy retard
>>21920940You can’t get your own wormwood to grow, you have to find it to propagate
>>21920942Whatever it’s all the same shit and advice stands. What is it actually, Transylvania or something? Unironically asking.>>21920946>implying I do not have seeds for this right nowGod bless
>>21920779NTAYou must be new here?
>>21920948>Unironically askingVal-de-Travers, Suisse
>>21920961Much appreciated. I get defensive about my shitty burger education but I do try to learn stuff kek
>>21920951>NTAyou must be new here
Absinthe cocktail at the Brooklyn Weeb Center in Sunset Park It's been a few years since I had it just cause it's a rarer find, but nice weather on a Sunday and I plan on going through Green Wood so it's a good pregame Sweet with a licorice taste, the buzz is a bit heavier. I'd not say "like" a hallucinogen more like a strong indica. A jazz band just started warming up though so I may be hallucinating
Forgot pic. Obv more yellow than green
>>21920936Interesting for sage, I may try to do some salviabsinthe. My rum infused fresh wormwood was too bitter but ok for cocktails.I tried a few correct absinthes in my life, it was good but it's still a niche compared to anise drinks and suze/gentian drinks.Anethol is banned here (France) too, people have to go to Spain if they want to make diy pastis / anise drinks.
i break out in hives if i drink itthink i may have an allergy to alcohol or something because anything high proof just kills me
>>21920693No. The thujone content is specifically regulated to have absolutely no effect and most of them are nowhere near even 140 proof.
I bet I could pull so much goth alt girl pussy if I had a bottle of this stuff.
>>21920693Good look finding this stuff with wormwood still in it, most countries have banned that version.Yet it's astronomical ABV, starting in the 60s and up to 90% will make you crazy enough after a glass or two
>>21920951Why do you double down and stand behind fucking up as if it's "board culture"? >>21920948You don't know how to upload an image still? Get it together, newfag. There is no god. "Unironically" is a pointless word. If you must specify just use the old "serious question" instead. You have no reason to assume you won't be taken for sincere.
>>21922759holy retard
>>21920699>>21920942>>21922774*tips fedora*
>>21920693>is this true? it isn't, unless u can get ur hands on absynthe WITH now illegal/avoided ingredient, which is nearly impossible to get
>>21920693No. Absinthe does not cause hallucinations or psychoactive effects. The reputation comes from days when production was less regulated and distillers would add harmful shit like copper for color.
>>21920693Nope, also worst alcoholic drink by a long shot. Even the amount in pic related will quickly give you that "oh shit I drank way too much can't go back head is spinning" feeling. It's also very thick and syrupy. All in all just terrible.
>>21920693>gives you a mild body highYeah, aka being drunk
>>21922795sage has more thujone in it
>>21922772It says God bless on the packet, you micropenis incel. There’s also “God bless” guy who posts frequently so I consider it board culture even though I don’t consider myself Christian.If you’re too much of a seething faggot to not spaz about colloquialisms, please exit. I do not care about your tenure, retard.
