Default Re: Absinthe Afternoon

Yeah, what the hell. You're right. 4 Sazeracs at the Roosevelt in New Orleans costs $50on their own. It seemed like several of the nicer bars in New Orleans were using a brand called "Herbsaint Liquer" in their Sazeracs (Antoine's Hermes bar, for example). It's made in the USA and probably not real absinthe. It shows up online for under $20 a bottle but I can't find it anywhere, including Total Wines in Atlanta and Jacksonville.

I did just spend $45 at Joe Cigar yesterday though for 10 La Aurora Preferido Ecuador #2s...might have to wait a week or so before I treat myself again.
