Yep, *poof* it's available at Spirits Corner. Looks like people aren't making enough money hawking absinthe as a hallucinogen. Always nice to appeal to the not-down-with-the-belle-epoc types, I suppose. Expanded customer base.

Now, the real question... Does it actually taste good?

Read the Weekly ABG Precis under important topics in The Absinthe House.

I saw on a Harry Potter movie that they scream when you pull them out of the ground. scared.gif

I don't know if it is true or not, but there is a legend that they scream when you pull them up. I think it was one of those "myths debunked" things, that some guy showed it was actually a high-pitched squeek caused by the main root being seperated from the small roots, and pulled past them quickly as you pull it out of the ground.

Or something like that.

2 or 3 weeks ago 2 friends and I polished off a bottle of SC's Mandrake Liquor. It tasted quite good, kind of pepperminty; very pleasant to drink. As for being hallucinogenic? It just made me a little more absent-minded than I usually am and no more hallucinations than usual either.

Then fuck it.

It'd be cool if it screamed when
you poured it out of the bottle.
Felis Catus
The legend of mandrake root screaming when you pull it out of the ground comes from its resemblance to a miniature human body.Therefore when you pull it up you are killing a little person.

A drink with sound effects might be fun,but I do'nt know about screaming.
How about some Pink Floyd?

There's this cafe here in Copenhagen called Kruts Karport that serves some so-called absinthe. They claim that it contains mandrake. But then again, they also claim that absinthe in general is supposed to be made of wormwood and mandrake.

I've tasted their stuff once. Didn't make a great impression on me. I remember it as some mostly harmless pastis-like re-animator juice.

but did you drink it the right way?

This following is from SC's e-mail I received yesterday:
QUOTE
But if you want to feel its effects, than donīt swallow the drink immediately, but let rest in your mouth for 3 - 5 minutes, moving it as if it was a mouthwash. After 2 or 3 shots you will notice it.


Lovely. Getting high thru osmosis. Isn't that what we used to call a "contact high"? basher.gif
Larspeart
considering alcohol of any sort is absorbed through your tongue/mouth MUCH faster anyway, all they are playing off of is jr. high school science class.

The alcohol gets into your bloodstream faster, thus, you feel high quicker. Shit, if you let a moutnful of beer sit on your tongue, you'd get drunk quicker then swallowing it.

AND I KNOW Jack knows about the 'butt trick'. . .

well, witches DID put drugs on their broomsticks and rode them.

i think that Jack's butt trick involves running ribbons around a gaypole.

Back to the thread topic.

Is anyone going to try this Mandrake?

SC's three bottle set looks interesting to me mainly 'cause I like the other two in it.

Come up with a justifiable reason to buy it and I might.
Peppermint taste - no.
Swish like mouthwash ritual - no.
CelticGent
how about if it made the ass-peanuts chafe less?

CelticGent

(no, smartass, it's not because i couldn't use any)

so i missed the whole absinthe scandal.
Masque
When I heard about the absinthe article, I bought it. Normally I buy it based on if the cover makes me salivate or not.
