Where can you buy absinthe

Answers:

Answer

It is not legal to buy it in the US, but you can buy it elsewhere and bring it back - it is legal in many foreign countries. A friend of mine bought some in St. Maartin

You can also buy absinthe online from other countries and ship it to the US.

Sorry, it is legal to sell absinthe in the US. The ban was lifted on 2007. We have labeling requirements that differ from the rest of the world but it is available. If you try to bring it in to the US, it may be up to customs if you get to keep it.
