Absinthe Adventures: Tasting & Comedy Show
Five tastings. One comedian. Many bad decisions.
Embark on a hilarious, intoxicating journey through the wild world of absinthe - the drink that was banned for a reason.
Sip on five unique varieties while comedian and former journalist Dave Crisante dives into the myths, madness, and mayhem behind history’s most scandalous spirit.
Expect laughs, lore, and just enough absinthe to justify any questionable life choices you make after the show.
Bring friends.
Leave your dignity at the door.
Presented by: Dave Crisante
