All year we’ve been working hard to perfect two new absinthe accessories. Having been through rounds of prototypes, we’re in love with the final results. We’re very proud to present the following nifty bits of kit, exclusively available from us…
Copied from an original vintage piece, this carafe was designed solely with absinthe in mind. Using a carafe is the most common way of dripping water over a sugar cube and into a glass of absinthe, but however careful or experienced you are, there’s always a moment when water sloshes out or an ice cube suddenly drops into the glass. With this carafe, the top is at an angle to make sure no such thing happens. The little spout, or ‘bec’, meaning beak in the original French, ensures a steady stream of small drips, just like you’d get with an absinthe fountain. There is nothing else out there like it.
The Bubble Glass has to be one of the most fascinating bits of absinthe paraphenalia out there. Closely inspired by a glass in the collection of David Nathan Maister, the respected absinthe expert, the bubble gives an exact measure of absinthe with ease. These glasses are beautifully hand-made by artisan glass-blowers in Europe.
When you get a sample of Pernod Fils Tarragona, and a vintage repro absinthe carafe and bubble reservoir glass to drink it with, we’ll give you 10% off!
The run up to the winter holiday season can be a stressful time, so remember to take a moment for yourself, have a relax and unwind. Give yourself a well-earned reward to celebrate the end of the year. Go on, you deserve it!
All the best, and have an excellent time!
Andrew.
Everyone here at Absinthes.com wishes you a superb time as we head towards Christmas and the new year!
