Absinthe. The mystery. The lore. The weird little slotted spoons. The Savoy would like to give you a refresher course on the basics of van Gogh’s favorite liqueur via a tasting of five different kinds. Your class notes are going to be very sloppy.
Pre-drinking. Pre-partying. Breakfast. Whatever you call it, that little drink before you head out to a big party is essential.
