Wormwood is to blame. Whereas historians differ on how, folks in Europe knew for a long time that leaving certain taverns could ultimately cause some inconsistencies in perception; for many patrons. And so Absinthe was banned on July 5th, 1908. While we prefer rum, of course, the perception problem persists. Thus, the approach to any of Daufuskie’s infamous drinking holes can be riddling at best. Surely, the Absinthe can’t be held responsible for the coloration of the landing but how can we be sure? We can’t. We can merely hope that everything will be fine again at dawn. When the fog has lifted.
