ABSINTHE & ABSINTHIANA

One of the oldest sites, probably the largest, unquestionably the best. An unequalled source of accurate information,
coupled with the best and most interesting forum. Kallisti, based in San Francisco was the a truly remarkable creative force
behind this extraordinary site, which has directly resulted in many transcontinental friendships being formed, several
business's being started, and (so far) at least one marriage! In 2004 Oxygénée purchased the site from Kallisti.
