absinthe isnt illegal, why are you trying to "smuggle" it ?

it is in the US. the stufff i have is czech and contains thujone (from wormwood) and i'm 20 which means the alcohol part alone isnt cool with US customs.

the chances of them opening a package and caring that theres a bottle of absinthe in there, 1/1000000
the chances of them opening a listerine bottle and noticing it isnt listerine, 1/10

or just order it of the net, borrow someones card and order the shit. its only illegal to drink- and sale in establishments. as long as it has that not for consumption sticker and its not been opened it cool to have and bring to the states.

I find this hard to believe, but if you really did get away with this, you are one lucky fuck.
