Absinthe – A green/yellow bitter liqueur flavored with a variety of herbs, mainly anise,
and a usually high alcohol content of around 130 proof. Prepared from the wormwood
plant, thought to be a narcotic due to one of its key constituents being a volatile oil called
Thujone (“tou – zhon”), known for its hallucinogenic properties due to it being a stimulant
to the brain. This was also viewed as the reason for its addictive tendencies and why it was
also banned in France in 1915, as the milligram content of Thujone they used may have
been too high during the production of the liqueur. It has never been illegal in Spain, the
U.K., or the Czech Republic, and is currently legal and produced once again in France.
