when i was in knoxville (in March) i stopped in a liquor store and seen Grande Absente - Absinthe Originale (the brand also has a refined version). After buying a small bottle and trying it i did a little research because the lady at the liquor store said it had just been legalized and that there has been refined versions of absinthe and this was the first true to recipe. The brands web site says its made to the original recipe in france but im not sure whether to believe it. the web site is http://www.grandeabsente.com/absente.html . it is 69% alc/vol (138 proof) I had never had absinthe before so im not sure what an original is suppose to taste like.
