What is Absinthe Myth, History, and Resurrection - Opening and Drinking from a 100 Year Old Bottle

No spirit is more evocative of the occult and the esoteric than the Green Fairy or Absinthe. Inspiration to dozens of artists and poets including luminaries like Ernest Hemingway, James Joyce, Charles Baudelaire, Paul Verlaine, Arthur Rimbaud, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, Pablo Picasso, Vincent van Gogh, Oscar Wilde, Marcel Proust, Aleister Crowley, and Alfred Jarry absinthe has a reputation like no other spirits. Thought to cause madness and hallucinations, most of absinthe's history is shrouded in myth. Join Esoteric as we explore this spirit, discuss Aleister Crowley's essay “The Green Goddess“ and actually open and sip from a 100 year old bottle of real, vintage absinthe.
