I'm not really a drinker, but I tried it in Prague and didn't get the big deal. Like drinking brandy, ouzo, etc- its either your thing or not...

I like it. I have drank a lot of Cognac in Italy. Just not the best in chemical health. ;)
I will have to try the Absinthe. If I see visions, I will let you know....... ::)

I had very, very vivid dreams after drinking it. Nothing really weird, though, and not nightmares.
I'm going to invest in an absinthe fountain. It will make louching (sp? dripping water over a sugar cube) easier.
Rick, you may have drank a wee too much. My worst ever hangover involved a breakup with a girlfriend, hanging out with Viking-sized friends and trying to keep up with them in a bar in Harvard Square, a great number of ales, and then an accidentally ordered and not paid for shot of lemon vodka. It ended with sobbing hysterically on the floor of my apartment kitchen after waking up the roommates trying to fit the key in the lock. A wonderful night that was :) Then I unfortunately woke up. One roomie thoughtfully left a bucket by my bed.

That peach jar was refilled several times,the first was good,it is still in the fridge in the archery shop.
Some shine is pretty smooth and I have had some that taste like kerosene. King Ron gets some good stuff just don't know where it comes from. I will take a small taste but don't drink,clear,brown or wine,it just hurts me to bad the next several days, :o ant as tough as I use to be. ;) :) :)

What is all the talk of peaches? Are they used in making moonshine? Yeah, an ignorant question maybe, but I've never even seen any in real life, let alone drank any. Sadly, I had to make do with a nice local microbrew bitters last night, alas :) Next to pilsner, my favorite kind of beer.
Oh, btw, I have a bunch of cocktail recipes featuring Absinthe if anyone is interested. It makes a great mixer. Drinking it neat is highly not recommended. That is when the devil steps in.

It was some spring water a friend gave me that had some awful peach flavoring in it so I put a can of peaches in heavy syrup in the jar and filled it with the spring water and let sit in my fridge for like three months turned out great at least everyone drank it like is was really good. and then it was refilled and refilled and ..........
