My daughter [bought me one of these](https://slipstreamabsinthe.com/slipstream-absinthe-glass/phoenix-slipstream-absinthe-fountain-glass-pipe) for Father’s Day and now I’m obligated to go the next step and buy some Absinthe.  
I don’t have a problem spending pretty big money on liquor, but I won’t unless I know and like what I’m buying.

I’ve never tried absinthe before - never even thought about it, so it seems to me that the best thing to do is buy a sampler of some sort.

Can anyone recommend a sampler pack? Preferably something that ships from the US?
