"In May, Viridian Spirits of Manhasset, N.Y., introduced in New York a product called Lucid, which it says is the first legal and authentic absinthe in the country since the ban."
"nterestingly, U.S. law now allows absinthe that contains less than 10 parts per million of thujone. According to Lachenmeier's study, the historic absinthes that he tested would also conform to these maximum limits."
"In the US the levels permitted by law are very low, yet you can drink a bottle imported from Europe with higher levels of thujone if you like with no problems from the authorities."
