This luxurious absinthe set contains everything you could wish for and need to drink absinthe in the traditional way. The set includes a handy "Petite" absinthe fountain (French: Fontaine) with two spouts instead of four, an ice cube tray for XXL ice cubes for effectively chilling the water, four handmade Pontarlier absinthe glasses with matching coasters, four stylish stainless steel absinthe spoons ("Feuilles"), and a bag of absinthe sugar cubes.
High functionality and elegant craftsmanship define the appearance of this glass absinthe fountain. It features a delicately decorated lid, generously sized for easy filling with water and our XXL ice cubes. The fountain is easy to clean, as the taps can be unscrewed and completely disassembled. Made of plastic to prevent glass breakage, the taps have a glossy, silver finish that complements the fountain's classic, elegant look. Its compact size makes it easy to store, making it particularly suitable for space-conscious absinthe enthusiasts.
The absinthe glasses are an authentic reproduction of the original "Pontarlier" glass from the Belle Époque. They feature a reservoir in the base for measuring the correct amount of absinthe. Together with the equally authentic "feuilles" spoons and the faux leather coasters, you have a particularly elegant set. Our ALANDIA sugar cubes, also included in the set, are an important and useful accessory: they dissolve especially well when moistened with water because they are slightly less densely pressed. They are also somewhat flatter than conventional sugar cubes, which further contributes to their smoother dissolution during the ritual.
Overall, this absinthe set makes the "Green Hour" a unique experience and is also a great gift!
How to drink Absinthe with an Absinthe fountain
In our video you can see the traditional preparation of Absinthe Let's take a closer look at the fountain. As you can see, the advantage of the fountain is that the water is added to the absinthe drop by drop. This allows the sugar to dissolve particularly well, and the clouding of the absinthe occurs slowly in beautiful streaks. It's a unique spectacle and experience!
