The Listener drinks reviewer had a term for those that chose to MIX quality alcohols - 'Gustatory necrophilia'.

You're only playing with the DEAD BODY if you MIX it.

If you want mild aniseed flavour, drink something else. I think you miss the point of absinthe.

(And a little apostrophe protection society infraction thrown in for good measure

)

@Jono035 - That is top-notch pedantry. And even better, on a completely trivial matter.

I LOVE IT.

More PLZ.

Where does bulk ethanol 'liberated' from labs fit in the analysis? IIRC the 40 gallon drums were INSANELY cheap as there was no excise on them.

Surely any home-brew FTW?! (And bonus longer chain alcohols from poor process control! Turbocharge your hangover

...)

There was always a litre or 2 left in the bulk EtOH drums that the siphon just couldn't reach...which was still there at drum disposal time...

(Damned heavy metal contaminants alleged to be in cheap EtOH. Ruined all the potential fun.)

Have tried analytical grade EtOH, but it was horrid. Dehydrating agents or summat.

Where's a bio-scientist type to confirm the cost of bulk EtOH these days? GSXR Trace are you out there? Anyone else?

Because the yellow label absinthe tastes a hell of a lot different from green and red, as they all have varying degrees of different ingredients thrown in. The stronger the absinthe, the less needed when mised...and you can taste the aniseed in it. I think YOU miss the point of absinthe, another of the "its so strong so I must only be able to shot it and get shitfaced"

That is why. I dont state im a connoisseur. Different people like different drinks, maybe I like it mixed..and that is my opinon.

Ahhh so you went straight onto failnet to read what others say...supposedly "experts" who give their opinion on something and then say that is the right opinion. That is fail in my eyes.

My brother who is an bartender likes to drink it straight and mixed....and he likes the yellow label of the green and red. See different opinions

Note: never swish a shot of yellow label in ones mouth for one minute.....it makes your tongue bleed.....as I found out a few years back.

Sounds pretty logical to me...

I like Hennessy VSOP cognac mixed with L&P, try it sometime... Tastes like raisins and honey, beautiful drink. Most of the drink snobs I mention that to make a face like I've just suggested mixing it with the remains of blended roadkill...

If it tastes good, drink it! If it tastes crap but gets you hammered, drink it until you grow out of doing that. If it tastes crap but you drink it because its fashionable or 'proper' or you're afraid of getting mocked if you don't then that gets a wtf. Unless its already poured its in front of you, in that case anything else is just rude.

I have never tried that but I will, my grandfather liked VSOP, must have had good taste then.

Yeah, I drink whatever I like and tastes good. I dont have a palette for straight spirits a lot of the time. Except for that beautiful bottle of rum that andrews dad got....veeery nice.
