Whiskey is as American as apple pie. The oak tree on the front of the tuck box and seal - a symbol of the aging process for fine bourbon, matured in charred oak barrels to develop the distinct smoky flavour. This oak motif continues throughout the cards, from the Ace of Spades right around to the back design.

 

While bars before prohibition were predominantly male domains, in the 1920's many women flocked to speakeasies in their best flapper attire. We've taken inspiration from images of the era to design the court cards, the art-deco was very in-vogue at the time.

Full deck scan by macstrat @ https://cardscans.piwigo.com/index?/category/305-absinthe/ Absinthe - the Green Fairy of spirits, has long been associated with the bohemian lifestyle, with famous drinkers including Picasso, Van Gogh, Hemingway, Oscar Wilde and Toulouse-Lautrec. These cards embody the allure of the emerald drink, the hallucinogenic haze, sugar crystals in the night, the Ace of Spades modelled after the filigree of the absinthe spoon. With its heavy embossing and text that pokes fun at itself, even the box appears to have had a few drinks. Originally printed for the Prohibition Box Set, the Absinthe Version 2 deck has been tweaked slightly to keep the integrity in design, whilst also allowing you to own more than one deck, without having to buy multiple Prohibition sets. This deck is too cool for display, it has to be shown off...

These cards would look right at home on the back of a leather jacket, as a new tattoo, or splashed on the soundboard of your Les Paul. Alchemy1977, a company known for its alternative jewelry, games, clothing, and collectibles, designed each card for this unique deck. With every shuffle, you’ll see skulls, fantasy and steampunk characters, intricately designed suit symbols, and more. The Bicycle® Alchemy England Deck features original artwork on the front and back of each card. The decks were printed in the USA at The United States Playing Card Company and printed on premium stock with a quality finish.
