Absinthe is not capable of getting you messed up… Unless you mean sh#tty drunk since it usually well above 40 proof. The whole hallucination thing was made up by the French wine industry over 100 years ago and was later picked up by the Temperance movement here in the US… A nasty and persistent rumor… but nothing more.

So, save you money since they "expensive" stuff you can get imported from over seas isn’t worth it. Trust me. Before I learned that it didn’t do anything I wasted a lot of money importing it. Go out and get yourself a bottle of Lucid… It was designed by T.A. Breaux, who you should be familiar with if you watched the above video.
If you insist on importing….

BTW:
It has never illegal to own, purchase or consume absinthe in the US… It was only illegal to sell it.
If you were the real deal you wouldn’t need to be asking this question.Go clean your room.
In the US? I have no idea! I know they sell it in liquor stores in the US now, bu tit isnt the real deal. Gotta go to europe for some o that hardcore absinthe with the wormwood
Let me know when you find out!!!
watch moulin rouge and grab it out of the screen
Why do you want to get messed up? You must be young. Getting ‘messed up’ isn’t cool at all.
real absinth is long gone, you can find it in 1980

Anything from Europe were it is made has little or no wormwood in it, the wormwood was the hallucinagenic ingredient from as far back as the Middle Ages, it was used during the Black Plague during the 15th century to calm and sooth the plague sufferers before they expired. I read about it in a Sir Issac Newton book on alchemy.
Even today the ones made in France but Pernod, in the Czech Republic and Germany are made with the same botancial and herbs but the wormwood is either omitted or only an extract is added, in the US there is a similar product in New Orlean called Herbsinthe, flavour like absinthe but no real kick.
