Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau. And yes, you're right about them: they managed to prevent absinthe from being sold prior to 2007 without any legal background. Absinthe has been technically legal in the U.S. since at least the 1960's.
There are so many ways to drink absinthe. Some good, some bad, some in between. I think the worst way is to flambé the absinthe and then pour cold water on it. Another way i saw which is a bit better is to pour absinthe in the glass but through the sugar cube. Flambé the sugar cube without putting fire to the absinthe at the bottom of the glass, and then pour cold water on the sugar cube. Personnaly i like it the way its demonstrated in the video but I keep every sip 5 seconds in mouth :)
A French girl who worked at an Absinthe bar in Paris told me not to hit the sugar directly with the water because it would just knock chunks of sugar into the drink.
What if we dissolve plain sugar in a glass of water, and then slowly add it to the absinthe? Is it not the same? This way, you 'll be sure that the ratio is 5:1 if your amateur too
It is too bad that anyone would play with this without a fountain. Ugh - just watching him spill water all around the sugar, while trying to make a small, steady stream onto the sugar cube, lol, just too much to bear. I highly recommend to anyone - yep, spend the money, and get serious about being Bohemian, and play with bourgeois fashion. Ain't nothing like building a real absinthe bar. Truly an amazing journey, worth the price. Ab SIN the, ... every bit true, and so very exquisitely sinful, lol.
I thought it was a nice video and though she's a bit animated, I didn't see this as a problem or an annoyance. The annoying part was from reading the comments which sound like they came from 5 year old's. Obviously too young to be drinking anyways, so why are you kids watching this video. LOL
Perfect . I needed to know how to do this without the fancy tools haha

Thanks for a proper video and I'm a proud member of the website.
Really informative! Absinthe is way too strong for me, on the whole, but it does have an amazing taste.
At the end of the video you had a sip of the drink, how was it?
What's the difference in pernod and absinthe ?

She tries to hard.... chill lady.

she is soooooooooooooo annoying. I like the guy though too bad she kept interrupting him.
That's not very nice, MrArtPolice.
To be fair, her bug-eyed overacting does irk me a tad bit as well.
Agreed. Dial it down a notch.
He looks so uncomfortable...

The presenter appears to be intoxicated/high/spasmodic already.
