Spirits class: Absinthe

Saturday, November 16, 1-2 p.m.

Bridgeview Liquors, 935 37th Ave. S, Moorhead

La Fée Verte – The Green Fairy. Absinthe… A drink of artists and bon-vivants, at the end of the nineteenth century, yet it also has a darker context, one related to overindulgence, hallucination, and death. Banned for nearly a century in much–though never all of the world, Absinthe was revived at the start of the twenty-first century. In this class, you will learn all about the troubled history of this spirit, taste several examples, and taste some cocktails for which Absinthe is an essential part. Join cocktail and spirit guru Evan Christie for this daring date with The Green Fairy.
