Oh yes, I got it and its coming!

I must be careful because thuj0ne is a highly psychoactive substance.
I can feel the secondaries already.

Have you forgotten your meds again?
Sponge Bob
My voices tell me I'm perfectly fine.

So....'
How do you feel about that?
TheGreenOne
Lucky devil. You can trade that bottle for a case of HG.

There's AA in the coloration.
Sponge Bob
Yeah, lots of it!

It'll make you trip balz!

Did you clog the sink and need some drain opener?
MrGreenGenes
If you can drink down the foulest liquid that means you have the biggest penis, right?
Off. Jack Batemaster
I drank some Segarra 68 on Saturday...you've gotta have pretty big Balz™ to stomach that bitter, palate ruining chit.
A.B. Normal
I didn't find the S68 to be that bitter.
But I believe I was already quite drunk.

And the foulest liquid / biggest penis thing makes sense. I understand now, SB.
<---- wink.gif
Sponge Bob
Yeah, I didn't find the 68 all that bitter either I actually liked it. Maybe because of my large penis, who knows.

I just talked to Eric, and told him about my recent purchase. He suggested we hold a TXLF to celebrate and have a tasting.

You up for it 1900?
Off. Jack Batemaster
The first time I tried it (a few weeks ago) - I was already toasted and it didn't seem so bad. I decided it would be my first drink, on Saturday. It ruined my palate for over an hour. Using AA in the coloration is BAD!
Sponge Bob
Just because something whacks your palate doesn't necessarily make it bad.
Take Cuban cigars for instance. They'll whack your palate for several hours if not a day.

In general I agree with you though, while I think you can make a good absinthe with a little AA in the coloring step, I think you can make the same absinthe better if you use something else.

Of course you could never make Filterated Czeckerland Xit King of Spirits without AA in the coloring step. I think we can all agree on that.

I thought it was the blowjob that ruined your palate.

In this case, it does.

I am not opposed to bitterness. I've had really grate Absinthe made with double wormwood that was quite bitter. Adding AA in the coloration is a different kind of bitter. A nasty bitter. Double wormwood which is distilled is a good bitter.
TheGreenOne
I thought twigs floating in the Filterated Czeckerland Xit was a sure sign of quality and authenticness.

Segarra 68 isn't bitter in the least, Jack...ever try an Imperial I.P.A.?

I don't think you'd admit it (even to yourself), if you ever actually enjoyed a commercial absinthe, for a change.

Yes, the 68 is nothing but wormwood, anise, and brandy, on the palate...

Not a hint of fennel to be tasted, and it's not distilled using Absinthe Suisse method, but you know what?

It's quite tasty.
Off. Jack Batemaster
No, I think I made my point. There is good bitter and bad bitter. Segarra 68 is bad bitter.

YOU ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO PUT AA IN THE COLORATION!!! Am I lost at ABG again?

I've enjoyed Segarra 45 and Kubler. Neither of those had AA used in the coloration step.

I thought you were supposed to use AA in the colouration.

Depends on whether or not you like the "Winston Fe Vurt" recipe.

The King is chock full of authentic goodness.
My problem now is that I don't want to crack the seal, it might reduce the value of my bottle.

I only hope that I'm up to the task.

It'll be hard to match Winston.

I'll bet KING uses some AA in the coloration step. images.jpg
Sponge Bob
That's why the King is the King.

Yes,........when?
MrGreenGenes
I thought the point of distillation is to leave nasty-tasting components of AA behind. If you use AA in the coloring step you might as well skip the distillaiton step and just steep your herbs in Everclear!
Absomphe
I thought the point of distillation was to produce enough alcohol to get you blotto really quickly, but that's just me. hippie_drunk_md_wht.gif

Damn straight! Mr. Segarra ruined what could have been a good product.

I could soak some Wormwood and Anise in some Everclear for ya! That would get you just as blotto as distilling Wormwood and Anise in Everclear.
TrainerAZ
Just remember to rinse your wormwood 8 times in Mr. Coffee first, to prevent zygi.gif
Le Gimp
1) I actually liked the Sagerra.

2) AA in coloration gives a 'Dirty/earthy' bitterness.

3) I have to go back to work tomarrow. 1[/SIZE]
