“No other spirit has so much mystery”: Evan Rail on absinthe’s Czech links and more
Radio Prague Int.
Evan Rail’s The Absinthe Forger is a true crime story that also explores the fascinating history of the spirit itself. Central to the new book is the absinthe produced before the “evil drink” was banned virtually everywhere in the early 20th century – only to make a comeback in the 1990s, a revival in which Czechia played a major part. Rail, a long-time resident of Prague, discussed that aspect of the story, and much more, at our studios in Vinohrady.
