Trust me, I know my absinthe history. I am 99% sure that you either had Hill's or some other brand with very little similarity to real absinthe. Those are the only brands sold in UK (and therefore BC, which based its absinthe regulations on UK).

Your friends can be the biggest whisky enthusiasts in the world; the fact is that you can't buy good absinthe in any store in UK if you tried.

And the fact that you didn't experience a secondary effect, and that you felt "intense drunkness" further proves my theory (the stuff they bought is most likely 150 proof)
If I ever see absinthe again I will pour it down the drain because I wouldn't want to consume any alcohol which you so passionately revere. Eat a major cock, you cock.
