Why was absinthe banned?
2008-05-20 15:56:00
Why was absinthe banned? This is a question that I get asked all the time. My stock answer is that nobody knows for sure and that the answer varies from country to country. Here are some theories on why absinthe was banned in France: 1. Before absinthe peaked in popularity, daily production levels were about 90 gallons a day. When it peaked, it shot up to 5,000 gallons a day. Distilleries had trouble meeting demand as some unsavory distillers cut corners and used low-grade alcohol that created health concerns. read more

Absinthe Featured on The Colbert Report
2007-11-09 16:34:00
The Colbert Report ran a The Word segment featuring absinthe. Colbert discussed its resurgence in America and on college campuses. He jokingly suggested that college students avoid absinthe and take a absinth-tinence pledge. It is as follows: I, state your name, do hereby pledge to practice absinth-tinence by remaining absinth-tinent from Absinthe . Since Absinthe incidents in many instances induce incipient synthetic inspiration and sinister synthetic insistence on sin, I sincerely insist I will be absent from instances of Absinthe ingestion, this instant. Say that 10 times fast! read more
