    I miss my days living in Holland, for many reasons. . . the stuff they have re-introduced to the US market is really low in thoujone, but anything 110% will still do the trick, but it still isn't the same.

    The "ritual" is always something I miss too.

    Hell, even the gin bars over there are amazing, you strap in, literary. Locals provide their own belt and you clip in as to not fall on your face. Genevere bars shots(not "drinks") are typically 100proof per shot, and makes for a really long night. a
