Absinthe is back!

I saw some awesome absinthe packaging on the Dieline today and it sent me sprawling through other absinthe labels, because the green fairy just kicks tail since Art Nouveau times. Here's some nice bottles:















And I couldn't forget Mansinthe. Yes, ladies and gentleman, this is Marilyn Manson's contribution. I would say that he should stick to music.




Lastly, I would like to include an antique bottle that I particularly like. It is the only documented bottle surviving from a pre-prohibition US absinthe manufacturer. The bottle is hand blown, dating from around 1880-1890.
