You are being forced to make Sazeracs and cocktail de la Louisanes . . . boo hoo hoo . . . HA! One thing about the Pernod - I think that Pernod's top note of anise/licorice is so strong that that is what turns most people off. After having both the Lucid and Kubler, the Pernod seems very one dimensional. This isn't to say it doesn't deserve a place in one's bar, but I think the utilizations have been limited with the onset of Absinthes (Absinthii?) on the market. Oh, BTW, saw something Joe earlier today . . . St. George Distillery's Absinthe should be in DC soon! Thank Jeebus I get my bonus on Friday . . . OMG THE HORROR!!!
