Why would it be illegal? What is it?I thought Absinthe was illegal in the U.S.?
and what is wormwood?
Any absinthe you can get into the US has the wormwood removed. That's why you still can't bring in absinthe if you bought it in Europe. They don't trust that you got the de-wormwoodified kind.
****, the customs officer let me get in with seven times the legal duty-free limit of beer, just because it wasn't absinthe. Maybe there's a huge absinthe-smuggling problem at the border these days, and he was just relieved all I brought was Guinness and some obscure Kentish ales.
Did it have the wormwood in it?
Do you still have the link for the site?
