La Fée Verte


A few weeks ago  some friends got together and the discussion went to liqueurs and spirits we have experienced. All of us got intrigued by Absinthe  since none from the group has experienced it first hand, plus the importation and sale of it is illegal in some countries.

Urban legends and media portrayal tell us that due to it's extremely high alcohol content it has hallucinogenic properties, consistent with the la fée verte or seeing green fairies.

This is something I have yet to experience and prove... maybe by 2012.
