Original Absinthe accessories set with Absinthe glasses, spoons and sugar:

This Absinthe set has the perfect accessories for your personal Heure Verte. The Pontarlier Absinthe glasses are mouth-blown (not pressed) and have a reservoir in the stem to measure just the right amount of Absinthe. They are an authentic reproduction of traditional Absinthe glasses from the 19th century. The set is complete with two stainless steel Absinthe spoons and one bag of original Absinthe sugar cubes (180gr).

The traditional French Absinthe ritual:

The French Absinthe ritual is comparable with the preparation of Pastis Pernod or Ricard, the follower or substitute of Absinthe after its prohibition. You fill the Absinthe glass with an amount of Absinthe (2 to 4cl, about a tenth pint). Then an Absinthe spoon is placed on the glass and one or two sugar cubes are placed on the spoon. Then ice-cold water is poured over the spoon. You have to do it slowly to dissolve the sugar cube completely. The green Absinthe blends with the water and begins to louche into white sage. The perfect Absinthe water ratio is 1:3. Finally stir the Absinthe with the spoon and voilá, your Absinthe is prepared!

Conclusion:

This Absinthe set is the way to go if you want to drink Absinthe the traditional way!
