Fallout: New Vegas Hints
Where can I find absinthe?
1 of 4: It's very rare, as booze goes. If you've started on the "The House Always Wins, I" main quest, you can find one in the Lucky 38's cocktail lounge. It's hard to spot since it's up on the highest shelf that goes around the central elevator column. You'll find it on the north side of that shelf.
2 of 4: If you've finished the "High Times" Freeside/Followers of the Apocalypse faction quest, there'll be five bottles of absinthe on the shelves behind the counter in the Atomic Wrangler in Freeside's second section. However, the Garrets won't sell it, so you'll have to somehow sneakily steal it.
3 of 4: In the Ultra-Luxe Casino, there are four absinthe bottles on the shelves in the north side room in Philippe's kitchen area. See the "Beyond the Beef" Strip/White Glove Society faction quest for more info, though note that you don't have to have that quest in order to enter the kitchen area and get the absinthe.
4 of 4: At the REPCONN Test Site (location 14 on the Zone 4 Map), there's a bottle of absinthe next to a skeleton in the radioactive sludge area that's directly west of the big rocket statue.
