Absinthe Market Dynamics:

Absinthe is made by redistilling neutral alcohol with botanicals—the “holy trinity” is wormwood, anise, and fennel—to create a concentrated, high-proof spirit. Other ingredients that are commonly added include hyssop, melissa, star anise, and lemon balm. Producers then reinfuse the spirit with more of these botanicals to give it its characteristic green hue. The major factors driving the growth of the absinthe market are the benefits of absinthe in the treatment of parasitic worm disease, use in the cosmetic industry, increasing demand for luxury alcohol beverages, and rising disposable income of the consumer will further boost the market growth. Further, the use of absinthe as an anti-inflammatory, insect repellent product, and anti-microbial in the cosmetics industry stimulates the demand for absinthe. The increasing demand for absinthe in the food industry owing to its property of enhancing flavors and taste of food products propels the development of the absinthe market. These are the major factors responsible for the growth of the market.

The major challenge faced by the absinthe market is that it causes hallucinations, absinthe was also associated with several negative psychotropic effects, including mania and psychosis. These were thought to result in violent and erratic behavior. Absinthe was even said to cause physical symptoms, such as facial contractions, numbness, and seizures. Due to the presence of thujone a chemical compound in absinthe which is responsible to slow reaction time and impairs a person’s ability to pay attention it may cause visual or auditory hallucinations in some people. Because of this not-so-good reputation, it was banned in many countries including the United States. Although possession and sale of thujone-free absinthe are legal in the U.S., the internet has made it possible to obtain absinthe containing thujone from countries like the Czech Republic where it is legal. In the European Union (EU), absinthe can contain no more than 35 mg of thujone per liter of absinthe. The 100 mg label you saw was likely the size of the bottle itself, with 35 mg of the contents or less being thujone. However, it’s possible that the amount of thujone you had was even lower than that: recent analyses of thujone content in absinthe have shown that many don’t even exceed two mg/l.
