I bought the Absinthe essence from Gert Strand and it's incredible. If you like Absinthe, this is the stuff.

I don't believe that the wormwood extract actually contains therjone ( trippy feel good stuff). A small amount of true absinth has a mild numbing effect in the mouth, I tried a bit of the extract with no result. I am soaking a half gallon with 2 ounces of dried woormwood before mixing the extracts, hopefully it has the desired effect.
