Today! We’re talking about all things Absinthe. It’s bracing. It’s black licorice-y. It’s a little spooky and a lot misunderstood. But why did absinthe get such a bad rap and why should it have never been banned? How is it made? Find out when Master Distiller Nathan Perry makes – and explains – this fascinating, green, big-flavored spirit.

Through his expertise and dedication, Perry showcases the rich heritage and craftsmanship behind absinthe, inviting you to appreciate its complexity and historical significance, whether enjoyed in a classic cocktail like the Sazerac or through the ritualistic experience of an absinthe fountain.

In France, absinthe was banned after (among other things) a highly publicized case of intra-family murder. The media relied very heavily on the fact that the culprit had taken an absinthe early on the morning of the murder (suggesting that without the absinthe nothing would have happened). The media just forgot to say that the murder took place in the evening (6-7 hours after absinthe) after the culprit had taken 3-4 liters of wine during the day plus several, many glasses of rum and other spirits. In short, at the time of the murder, the culprit was no longer under any influence from absinthe but rather from all the other alcohols he had consumed. It is also noted that at the time there was the idea of an "absinthe disease". Illness which brought together a set of symptoms which 100% current toxicologists would describe without any possible doubt as methanol poisoning.

Fun fact: one of the reasons it was banned was due to its popularity. It was very popular due to wine industry having an issue with their crops. People started to drink Absinthe and stopped drinking wine. By the time the wine industry recovered, no one wanted to drink it. So the wine industry lobbied to get it banned. The tipping point was a man who killed his family while drunk off absinthe. For me I drink it every once in a while. I've had some while sick and felt better due to that. It's fun to drink and feel your scalp tingle. It's good stuff if drank the traditional way.

Awesome! The colour looked superb! I’d really love to give this a go. Then maybe move on to an Anise like Ricard/ Pernod which I believe were developed because of the outlawing of Absinthe and then move on to Ouzo. Guess I’d best start looking at some equipment.

I don't even drink alcohol. I quit in 02 & never touched it again. But I find distilling & brewing fascinating. I've always wanted to learn how to. Right along with blacksmithing and all the other smithing that goes in the same group.

I happen to like black licorice and anise flavors. I think most people don't. I have tasted absinthe. I was told it's not a shot. I sipped it, it was sweet and I could really taste the anise flavor. I would probably prefer the green absinthe but I would still try the more clear kind.

Liquid opium was also dripped over sugar cubes. The mixing of opium and absinthe would definitely make a person hallucinate all sorts of things. I firmly believe the 2 were often combined considering all the opium dens that were around at that era.

This reminds me of the time I found myself in a posh pub, they had no Absinthe (the thing my one brother and I always drank when we got together) but they did have green Chartreuse. My brother and I hadn't tried Chartreuse before, but we went through a bottle that night.

because Absinthe got banned, the sazarac in New Orleans adopted a new spirt called Herbsaint to replace it which has alot of the same characteristics.

nice setup, but you'd get better results with a reflux column between the distillation flask annd the condenser

I nearly cried when you almost broke your Liebig condenser. They're not cheap.

The median lethal dose, or LD50, of α-thujone, the more active of the two isomers, in mice, is around 45 mg/kg, with 0% mortality rate at 30 mg/kg and 100% at 60 mg/kg. Mice exposed to the higher dose have convulsions that lead to death within 1 minute. From 30 to 45 mg/kg, the mice experience muscle spasms in the legs, which progress to general convulsions until death or recovery. These effects are in line with other GABA antagonists. Also, α-thujone is metabolized quickly in the liver in mice.[17] Pretreatment with GABA positive allosteric modulators like diazepam, phenobarbital, or 1 g/kg of ethanol protects against a lethal dose of 100 mg/kg

Thank you for this absinthe has always interested me but there is so much "fake" absinthe going around, I don't know where to start

Thanks for posting this. What proof or percentage alcohol did you start (90%?) with and end with? Is the final product 90% alcohol? You mention "the end of a Gin run" which means to me it's 90% ethanol? The simple distillation or "pot still" you used at the end will allow all the flavournoids to come across but then you are sipping 90!?
