    We like to keep our contributors on their toes here in Facts, and what better way to do that than subjecting them to gloriously high alcohol percentages of Absinthe? From a measly 68%, all the way up to almost 90%, watch in awe as we (well...they) experience the unique flavour that is absinthe. (Honestly, we're just glad they're still with us.)

    I feel like Absinthe is the “hot pepper” of alcohol. Like, you think you’ll be a badass drinking it and it does taste good, but then it just kicks you in the back of the throat. For example, when the shot is taken, you’re Kuzco when he kicks open a door shouting, “Boom Baby!” Then suddenly you’re the old man flying out the window yelling, “I’m sorry!”

    I once set out to prove that getting drunk was a myth. So one faithful evening (around 5 am), I took a glass cup and drank 6 teensie-weensie shots of Absinthe ( half a bottle) on an empty stomach. 6 hours, a broken sink , a barfed up bathroom, and a defeated liver later, I finally understood the truth: Absinthe really tastes like gobshite. Spent the next few weeks drinking regular water with an aftertaste of wormwood. Mmmm delicious.~

    there are two types of absinthe drinkers: Those who only care about the high alcohol content and those who love absinthe itself and prefer to drink it using the traditional method, which is diluting it with cold water(2-4 parts water to 1 part absinthe) by dripping it on a sugar cube, which is set on an absinthe spoon, so that the dripping water dissolves the sugar cube. It would be then drunk like a wine. In the process of preparing it traditionally the Louche effect occurs. That is the color of the absinthe turns into this milky green or white when adding water. If the Louche effect doesn't occur then you just have an anise flavored high alcohol content bullshit in a bottle more suited for the first type of people. I don't drink absinthe that often, however when I do I love it. As a bartender I also appreciate the culture and the traditional method of preparation. There's a lot of knock-off "absinthe" out there that is just a green or colorful liquid with a high alcohol content.

      Not at all, Absinthe is very strong(both in terms of alcohol content and taste experience) by any standards. It's why I like it.

      It is like 60-80% alcohol, compared to a beer or a wine which is like 4% lol

    • @chrisschneider2703
      @chrisschneider2703 6 років тому +59

      Light beer is around 4 percent. I'd say most non light beer is between 5-8. I've had some premium beers up to 12-14 percent. There's also cheap malt liquors guaranteed to give you a hangover that go from 8-12 percent.
      Wine generally goes from 12-15, but sweet wines can be around 10. I've seen some really cheap sweet wines below that, but I'm not sure if you can really call them wine at that point.
      A standard shot of liquor is 40 percent, but a strong whisky can be up to 50 percent. When drinking, I can definitely tell the difference between a 40 and 50 abv liquor when I start getting a buzz.
      These were really strong liquors. I've drank my fair share, and these would still have me on my ass pretty quick. If you're taking shots of this stuff, you better take it slow.
