伪 absinthe ：一个关于欺骗、背叛和世界上最危险的精神的真实故事

Evan Rail | 2024 | ISBN: 1685891543 | English | 368 pages | ePUB | 17 MB

An astonishing true crime story about an eccentric grifter who blew up the lucrative black market for vintage bottles of the legendary drink of artistic renegades, absinthe . . .

Thought to be hallucinogenic and banned globally for a century, absinthe is once again legal and popular. Yet it is still associated with bohemian lifestyles, just as when it was the favorite drink of avant-gardists like Toulouse-Lautrec and Van Gogh and Baudelaire. And today, when vintage, pre-ban bottles are discovered, they can sell for exorbitant prices to private collectors. But such discoveries are increasingly rare.

Which is why the absinthe demimonde of rich collectors was electrified when a mysterious bon vivant claimed to be in possession of a collection of precious, pre-ban bottles.

Is his secret tranche of 100-year-old bottles real? And just who is the shadowy person selling them? And what about rumors of another secret cache, hidden away in an Italian palazzo?

Journalist Evan Rail sets out to discover the truth about the enigmatic dealer and the secret stashes. Along the way, he drinks with absintheurs frantically chasing down the pre-bans, visits modern distillers who have seen their status rise from criminal bootleggers to sought-after celebrities, and relates the legendary history of absinthe, from its birth in Switzerland through its coming of age in France, and on to its modern revival.

一部惊人的真实犯罪故事，讲述了一个古怪的骗子，他炸毁了传奇艺术叛逆者最爱的古董伏特加——龙舌兰酒——的有利黑市……据说具有致幻效果，在全球被禁了一百年之久，如今龙舌兰酒再次合法且受欢迎。尽管如此，它依然与嬉皮士生活方式联系在一起，就像当它是塔尔斯·拉图尔、梵高和波德莱尔等先锋派人士最爱的饮料时一样。而如今，当发现古董、禁令前的瓶子时，它们可以被私人收藏家以高昂的价格买走。然而，这样的发现变得越来越稀少了。 正是由于这个原因，富有的龙舌兰酒爱好者的世界在一位神秘的生活放纵者声称拥有大量珍贵的禁令前瓶子时而激动不已。 他的秘密系列100年老瓶子是真的吗？而那个阴暗的人物又是谁在出售它们呢？此外，关于另一个秘密藏匿处，隐藏在意大利庄园里的传言又是什么？ 记者埃文·里尔（Evan Rail）着手探究神秘经销商和秘密库存的秘密。在旅途中，他与狂热追寻禁令前瓶子的龙舌兰酒爱好者们共饮，在现代蒸馏师面前拜访——他们的地位从非法灌装者上升为备受追捧的名人，并叙述了龙舌兰酒的传奇历史，从瑞士诞生至法国成长成熟，再到如今的复兴。
