Where Can I Purchase Absinthe Online?

There are many websites offering sales of Absinthe online and a vast array of Absinthes available. Some of the Absinthes available are not even really Absinthes but wormwood bitters or Absinthe substitutes. So, you should be asking “Where can I purchase real Absinthe online?” rather than “Where can I purchase Absinthe online?”.

Follow these buying tips to help you find a genuine quality Absinthe:-

- Read up about Absinthe on sites like absinthebuyersguide.com and lafeeverte.net. These sites will give you the history of Absinthe, details of Absinthes from different countries and even product reviews.

- If you have never tried Absinthe before buy a well known reputable Absinthe such as the famous Czech La Boheme “Absinthe Original”. It is said to be the finest Absinthe available and is distilled to a 200 year old Swiss recipe. Find out more at laboheme.cz. Other well known Absinthes are the Jade Collection of Absinthes by Ted Breaux, Pernod Absinthe, Absinthe Suisse La Bleue Clandestine and Absinthe Roquette 1797 which is distilled in Pontarlier France using traditional methods.

- Look for Absinthe which contains wormwood and anise. Wormwood bitters do not contain anise and some Absinthe substitutes do not contain wormwood. A real Absinthe contains wormwood, aniseed (and/or anise) and fennel. Some websites list the thujone contents of Absinthes so that you can be assured that the Absinthe contains real wormwood. The EU and the USA only allow the selling and buying of Absinthes to contain up to 10mg/kg of thujone but it is possible to find Absinthes with higher thujone levels online.

- Read product descriptions carefully and see if there are any reviews on the Absinthe available.

- Look at the alcohol by volume level of each Absinthe. Absinthe is a strong liquor and should have an abv of between 50 and 75%.

- Don't just consider green or verte Absinthes. Classic French Absinthes are green but Swiss clear Absinthes are still Absinthe and are known as La Bleue or clandestine Absinthes. Top-quality Absinthes use natural herbs and plants to color the Absinthe, not artificial colors.
