Absinthe in Canada?
 
Does anyone know if absinthe/absinth is sold in Canada? Google search is not clear, & I could not find it in a forum search here. Thanks. & Cheers!

You can get absinthe at the provinvial liquor stores in Quebec.

As is the case in the US, the rules and availability may differ from province to province.

Call first to make sure it's in stock (or to order). The 41st and Cambie location would be the most likely place to have it but there's a few other specialty stores too.

Found it & bought it at the BC store in Gas Town in Vancouver, near that steam clock. The Green Tree Distillery version. Thanks again, everyone! :)
