I don’t know about little plastic bricks, but I can tell the difference
between Czech absinthe and French absinthe with my eyes closed (hint: the
Czech stuff tastes like gasoline). Is absinthe better if it’s made by
Frenchmen rather than Czechs? Clearly, yes.

Absinthe ? Do you mean the drink made from absinthe? This drink is not
allowed to be sold in France (since 1915). The “French absinthe” you are
talking about is more probably from Switzerland. (where it has been legalized
in 2005)
Not a big deal :-)

It can apparently be produced for
export in France, and even sold in France if you don’t call it ‘absinthe’. I
recommend the
Verte de Fougerolles 72.
