I was curious about the alert on Obsello Absinthe today. So I googled "Thujone Obsello Absenta" and this comes up: "Thujone levels are very important to Spanish consumers, they have become accustomed to drinking absinthe solely for the effect" B. Alex Obsello Absenta. So according to Obsello the Spanish market drink absinthe for the effect and that is related to the thujone levels?

Are you sure he said that? Strange archaic way to sign isn't it? B.Alex.

B.Alex from Obsello Absinthe said that and was told to shut up by The Wormwood Society <yikes>

Yeah, so thujone = effect in Spain, but not in America which has "thujone free" absinthe.
