http://www.absintheonline.com/ authentic, there was an article about a year ago about a guy who bought an old bottle and analyzed it and made it from what he found in that bottle. Now it's sold through that website along with some other european brands. The article was in Wired magazine I think, the guy makes it in New Orleans (or did before Katrina) and sends it to Europe, they sell it and send it back lol.

**EDIT**
Found the article

It is illegal to sell in the US, but you can have it shipped from other countries. The stuff from the Czech Republic is supposed to be the best.

I had a bottle myself, split the cost with some friends and had it shipped in. It tastes like crap, hallucinations are definately a myth (not the reason I bought it so I was happy lol), and yeah it gets you drunk but for the same price I could get 5 bottles of Grey Goose and I wouldn't even need a sugar cube or slotted spoon.

Althought I am highly tempted to order a bottle of the Jade that's mentioned in that Wired magazine article.
