What ya drinking tonight?
Professor Push/Pull replied to DesertWolf's topic in General Absinthe Discussion
Did some Mansinthe earlier and a Kübler or two now -
I totally agree --PPP:)
-
C'mon guys and gals--smoke and absinthe seem to fit like a hand in glove. If I were sitting in a bar and someone knocks down a 72 and then a second--that person can smoke whatever they want. PPP

Never mind that. What was this about? It was about the "dusty rug" taste. It's OK now, the more I drink. I would say--all 3. The best I can come up with is "bland". -
Can someone tell me what plant is responsible for that "dry paint" and/or "dusty rug" taste I'm getting from this bottle of absinthe? PPP
-
Money well spent--I have 16 bottles of unopened absinthe in my cellar--I am ready for anything now PPP

Congrats on handling the Essai 3.. Save a few bucks on the gars by tring the El Mejor Expesso from Cigars International--almost as good as a pricey Padron. PPP

Hey--can't go wrong with La Bleus--thats' what I am enjoying. PPP -
Hey Butch--any wife that lets you order absinthe is a gem. Try the Verte de Fougerolles combo from LDF.
-
Yes, thanks for the site Shabba. Great to have a variety of choices in all things. Don't forget the Padron Madura if you are in a tight spot.

That could be attained in a straightforward manner with a breeding program. It could be done on a molecular level by knocking out a gene in the thujone biosynthetic pathway. If a strong demand for thujone-free absinthe were to exist, trust me, abundant suppy would soon follow. -

Welcome, Prof! A true-to-life gene jockey! You aren't into regulatin' α and/or β thujone expression in A. absinthium are you? If so, you might want to check with the folks at Veridian (makers of lucid, Absinthe Supérieure). Hey--I resemble that remark. Regulating expression is often harder to do in practice than in theory. I have a better way to jack up levels of interesting compounds in absinthe. Recently I turned a bottle of La Capricieuse into the finest verte out there. Think solubility and diffusion. -

You don't make your students read or write do you? Thats' your problem. Try asking them what is a fifth of 1 is and ask them to put their answer in decimal form. Scary -
