Description

Lady Absinthe Water Fountain, 4 Spout
Although not a reproduction of a vintage Belle Epoque absinthe fountain, this is perhaps our most
popular fountain. The glass bowl is mouth blown and the fountain is hand made.
Absinthe fountains were mostly used in high-end bars because of their expensive price tag. They were
brought to the table, where the customer would prepare the absinthe himself. Absinthe fountains were
(and still are) the preferred way to prepare absinthe, as one can perfectly control the rate of water. But
unfortunately due to accidents, very few fountains have survived intact with its original glass bowl.
Proper use consists of: pouring an ounce of absinthe into an absinthe glass, then placing an absinthe
spoon on top of the glass and a sugar cube atop the spoon. The lid of the fountain is removed and
fresh water and ice is added into the glass bowl. The spigot is slightly turned and the ice water is slowly
dripped from the fountain onto the piece of sugar. The cold sugar water then drips from the spoon into
the glass of absinthe releasing oils and perfuming the air with fennel, grand wormwood and anise. The
combination also begins to turn milky white in color, as the water mixes with the anise. Refresh water
before each use.
Fountain will accommodate 1 to 4 people at one time. Drink ratio varies from 1 part absinthe, to
between 3 to 5 parts water, depending on one's preference. California Prop 65 compliant when
