A. What I loved about it originally was that it was so illegal and misunderstood. People really still believe what the French wine industry lied about in anti-absinthe propaganda in the early 1900s. The French were worried about not being able to compete with absinthe, because absinthe was becoming more popular.

As far as alcohol-related misinformation goes, the mythology around absinthe is some of the most egregious. Wormwood, the primary ingredient that gives absinthe its unmistakable botanical bitterness, has been associated with gods and magic since ancient times. Absinthe was also one of the only spirits to have been specifically banned by governments in the early 1900s, thanks to its rise in popularity during a time when temperance movements were taking hold in Europe and the United States.

Early forms of absinthe (that is, drinkable wormwood) are so old, in fact, that they appear in the Bible, as well as ancient Egyptian and Syrian texts. Back then, absinthe was a simpler recipe, consisting of just wine infused with wormwood. It was used to treat a wide range of conditions including jaundice, menstrual pain, anemia, and bad breath.

Over the centuries, absinthe gradually transitioned from medicine to recreational beverage, with the recipe that we now think of as modern absinthe emerging in apothecaries in Switzerland in the late 1700s. As in ancient times, absinthe was thought to alleviate chills and fevers and stimulate appetite. Though its medicinal claims are largely unproven, it was given to French soldiers during their colonial conquest of Algeria as a fever and malaria preventative. Once soldiers returned to France, they had developed a taste for the stuff, and it became widely popular among young urbanites.

In 1901, lightning struck the Pernod factory in Pontarlier, France, causing a fire and forcing the workers to release tens of thousands of liters of absinthe into the nearby Doubs River to prevent an explosion. Nearby, a professor was studying another river to determine if it was fed by the Doubs via an underground channel. While previous attempts to prove this had been unsuccessful, two days after the fire, the river turned a milky hue, thus verifying that there was an unseen connection between the two rivers.

To make one drink, add 1 dash absinthe (St. George Absinthe Verte) to a chilled cocktail coupe glass and swirl around until the inside is coated. Set aside (or return to the freezer).

Atelier Vie is the first and only absinthe distillery in Louisiana. Based in New Orleans, the distillery was founded by Jedd Haas to address the need for a greater variety of locally produced distilled spirits. They distill Toulouse Red, a \"new school\" American absinthe; and Toulouse Green, a traditional style green absinthe

Violet Crown Spirits makes Texas' first absinthe just outside Austin in a little town called Bastrop. Emerald is distilled in 55 gallon batches using a custom-built still and a delicate balance of thirteen herbs and spices including peppermint. It has a complex and rich flavor with a creamy and lingering finish, boasting notes of licorice and green pepper with a sweetness reminiscent of golden raisins. A grape spirit based recipe, it delights the palate with a surprising pre-ban taste and feel found in few of today's modern absinthes.

Letherbee's Barrel-Aged Absinthe draws its caramel hue from a six-month stint in unused, charred-oak casks. A straightforward white absinthe recipe mellows in the aging process, softening the anise notes to let sumptuous floral and spice layers resonate. Besides the color, the full-sized barrels also imbue the Absinthe Brun with toasty hints of vanilla and caramel. Bottled at 126 proof, the spirit-forward drink is an addictive sipper that can also add depth to a variety of cocktails.

Their absinthe combines a variety of classical absinthe herbs, including anise, fennel, and wormwood, as well as some unique attributes that draw out flavor and depth, such as ginger and tarragon. Overall, there are eleven various botanicals in their recipe and they use over 75 pounds of these botanicals for each 50-gallon batch they create, resulting in a rich and flavorful spirit for your enjoyment.

Alpha- and beta-Thujones are active ingredients in the liqueur absinthe and in herbal medicines and seasonings for food and drinks. Our earlier study established that they are convulsants and have insecticidal activity, acting as noncompetitive blockers of the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-gated chloride channel, and identified 7-hydroxy-alpha-thujone as the major metabolite and 4-hydroxy-alpha- and -beta-thujones and 7,8-dehydro-alpha-thujone as minor metabolites in the mouse liver microsome-NADPH system. We report here unexpected site specificity and species differences in the metabolism of the thujone diastereomers in mouse, rat, and human liver microsomes and human recombinant P450 (P450 3A4), in orally treated mice and rats, and in Drosophila melanogaster. Major differences are apparent on comparing in vitro microsome-NADPH systems and in vivo urinary metabolites. Hydroxylation at the 2-position is observed only in mice where conjugated 2R-hydroxy-alpha-thujone is the major urinary metabolite of alpha-thujone. Hydroxylation at the 4-position gives one or both of 4-hydroxy-alpha- and -beta-thujones depending on the diastereomer and species studied with conjugated 4-hydroxy-alpha-thujone as the major urinary metabolite of alpha- and beta-thujones in rats. Hydroxylation at the 7-position of alpha- and beta-thujones is always a major pathway, but the conjugated urinary metabolite is minor except with beta-thujone in the mouse. Site specificity in glucuronidation favors excretion of 2R-hydroxy- and 4-hydroxy-alpha-thujone glucuronides rather than those of three other hydroxythujones. Two dehydro metabolites are observed from both alpha- and beta-thujones, the 7,8 in the P450 systems and the 4,10 in urine. Two types of evidence establish that P450-dependent oxidations of alpha- and beta-thujones are detoxification reactions: three P450 inhibitors block the metabolism of alpha- and beta-thujones and strongly synergize their toxicity in Drosophila; six metabolites assayed are less potent than alpha- and beta-thujones as inhibitors of [(3)H]ethynylbicycloorthobenzoate binding to the GABA(A) receptor in mouse brain membranes and as toxicants to Drosophila. 59ce067264
