Absinthe

[shoe-gal]

Can anyone tell me where I can buy Absinthe.  I live in Southend in Essex.

Thanks

House of Fraser and Selfridges sell it if you have either of those nearby.  Some independent off-licences stock it too.  But i wouldn't recommend Sebor which some supermarkets sell.  I found it a bit rough tasting (but personal preferences etc etc...)

Absinthe nowadays does not contain wormwood, which is what made it hallucinogeic (the green fairy!) so if you're after it for that, then you're out of luck. 

I bought a bottle by mail order a few years ago - it was very strong and tasted nasty, so I advise caution!

u can get it in Asda. I saw it in my local store (Grimsby) but i'm assuming that all stores sell same stock.

Its nasty tho.

Tesco, Rainbow, Threshers. It's not naughty anymore!
