A good way to get rid of a surplus of Hill's perhaps. Maybe this is a sign that the craze for Czech absinthe in the UK is coming to an end....

Absinthe alcopops, bizarre, although they sound pretty tasty to me.

Wierd though I would have thought that absinthe was too far nichy for anybody with any marketing sense to launch something like an absinthe alcopop, (maybe they've got some cash they want to burn).

I don't believe this, but lastminute.com are 'offering' Mari Mayans 70% for 45 UKP! I thought this site was for bargains, this is ridiculous. Also absinthe is being used for alcopops now, on the same site you can buy a case of 24 'Green Fairy' alcopops (absinthe with lemon & lime) for 29 UKP. The mind boggles, it really does.
