Last week a bunch of us partook in an after work
happy hour. We spent the evening at
Shanghai 1930, where we ate tasty dim sum morsels, and drank way too many drinks. One of these drinks was a straightforward absinthe service.

In a "hmmm... surprised this didn't happen sooner" moment, Marilyn Manson will continue to perpetuate his gothic identity by releasing his own line of absinthe called "
Mansinthe."
The family-run distillery
Matter-Luginbuehl will collaborate with Manson in order to produce thousands of bottles for a worldwide audience.

Believe it or not, but you'll now be able to
get your hands on absinthe in the US. It probably has the thujone (the supposed psychoactive portion) removed, but it clocks in at 124 proof which should still knock your socks off. - Liquor Snob
