Thanked: 1195Hills, from the Czech Republic, is a good choice. No worry about it not containing the "active ingredients", trust me it does the job just fine. It is an acquired taste though; no one I know likes the taste. I once described it like a mixture of turpentine and mouthwash. I can tolerate it if prepared in the traditional Czech fashion.

I like Lucid, myself. Though I prefer not to burn the sugar cube. Just pour the absinthe over the sugar, and then slowly drizzle the ice water over it and if you do it slowly enough it will dissolve the sugar away. I think the proportions I liked the best were 1.5 oz absinthe to about 4 oz water. Or maybe it was 2 oz water. Been a while.
Lucid doesn't taste like candy licorice so much as herbs, at least to me. I think you'll like the experience.

Me and two of my friends were planning on pitching in on a bottle of Jade PF 1901
We still haven't gotten around to it, let us know how you like the Absinthe bar Doc.
