Description

"Drink from the glass that glows so bright green,
and her charms will sink into your mind,
her beauty is thunk, to make all men drunk,
but her oblivion is ever so kind."

The drink Absinthe, also known as "la fée verte" (the green fairy), enjoyed its greatest popularity in late 19th century Paris, when Vincent Van Gogh, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, Paul Verlaine, Ernest Hemmingway and Oscar Wilde were among its most ardent fans. It was an inseparable part of artistic life during that period of time. It is said to have inspired fine literature and great paintings.

Absinthe is very alcoholic and is described as "Crystal clear in the bottle, potent emerald in the glass".
