Sure?
Cause everyone who tasted it on saturday found it nice, unusual but pleasant, I would drink it regularly to be honest.
Honesty is a good thing, M.
So would I, for the record.

Whereas, you know well enough that your alleged palate is wedged so far up your ass that you needed to co-write your one pre-ban review with Head, to make sure it wouldn't stink too much to not be fumigated.
I was reviewing craft brews for a living while you were snorting Stridex™ in high school, asswipe, so enjoy impugning my credibilty in your little magic kingdom...guess what, it ain't even a reflection of reality.

It doesn’t taste like good absinthe. Nothing you’ve said changes that. If you like it, fine, I don’t.
And, honestly, you are a fucking tardo.

Perhaps your conception of absinthe is just a bit limited, or your scorn for Hiram has so clouded your judgement that no matter what product he was associated with (and yes I know he had nothing whatsoever to do with the actual distillation of it), you would be determined to dislike it.
As Mthuilli said, the Marteau is quite pleasant...for you to go as far as to say it's sinkable (or toiletable) is simply babyland crapola, which I guess is reflective of the kind of "bar" you want to run here...grate, you pay the light bill, it's your domain, and, bottomline, I really understand, and respect that...I'm just sick to fucking death that every goddamned interest always has to break up into factions, and become an us vs. them thing...Hiram loves absinthe, its history, and the revival, and I know you do, as well...just once, I'd like to see such passions not be at odds with each other, but I guess that just ain't human nature, is it?
Sorry for the rage, and ranting...or maybe not...have a nice evening.

I don't like the taste of the stuff. In fact, it makes me nauseous. To each their own, butt there is no way you'll convince me this is a well made
absinthe .
The kind of "bar" we run here is one where people can say what they think. If you don't agree fine. It has nothing to do with factions, since all are welcome to post. Nothing gets edited and no one with a spine gets run off.

I have a glass of the stuff in front of me right now unlouched.
I can definitely smell the celery seed. Reminds me of coleslaw or thanksgiving dressing.
Louched, the celery scent gives way to sweet anise and cooked wormwood. Kinda like burnt honey.
Maybe not as bad as the King says but nowhere as good as Absomphe seems to think.
My biggest problem with this Absinthe is that there is nothing pleasant in the aftertaste.
It is totally flat in this regard. No lingering character whatsoever.
I also still have a sample of proto 33 that spent the summer in my back yard (in a clear vial).
It is still green!
Go figure.
Just trying to be real.
Peace.

Don't tase me, Bro.
I don't like the combination of sickly sweet and vegetal flavors, not even a little. Maybe, along the same lines, the taste of pomegranate and clams makes you gag. We all have our limits. For me, this is just bad swill.
This xit just doesn't taste like absinthe. I don't care if'n some of the right ingredients are present, it just sux. This has nothing to do with Hiram, though it shows Hiram hasn't learned a fucking thing since he was singing the praises of F. Guy. I'd tell it to the Grate H's face, butt he's not talking to me. Sad, butt I hope the pocket change he gets for this makes up for the friends he's fucked. Butt, once again, that isn't the point.
