The Green Fairy Cometh


Remember Absinth? This highly alcoholic spirit favoured by 19th century Parisian writers and 20th century wildcats is currently banned in the states and most parts of Europe for its reputation as a dangerously addictive psychoactive drug. If you dont remember Absinth (for reasons possibly related) here is your chance to shake hands with the Green Fairy and forget it all over again.

The Absinth Salon has just opened in Surry Hills, serving an array of Absinth priced from $12 to $20 per glass, served from a traditional Absinth water fountain. Buyers beware, the only alcohol served is Absinth, so only the strong survive. They're open Tuesday through Sundays 4-10pm and can be found at 87 Albion St.

Absinth.
