Absinthe Fountain - Fairy Silver 4 taps
To properly enjoy traditional absinthe, preparation is everything. The "Fairy" fountain isn't just a stunning centerpiece—it's designed to perform the ritual with precision:
-
Prepare the Fountain: Fill the 2L glass reservoir with a mixture of ice and cold water. Using ice-cold water is key to unlocking the spirit's complex aromas.
-
Set Your Glass: Place an absinthe glass beneath one of the taps. Set a slotted absinthe spoon across the rim of the glass and rest a single sugar cube on top.
-
Control the Drip: Turn the metal tap slightly to create a slow, steady drip—not a stream—directly onto the sugar cube.
-
Watch the Louche: As the ice water dissolves the sugar and mixes with the absinthe below, you’ll observe the famous "louche" effect—the liquid gradually transforms from clear to a cloudy, milky opalescence.
-
Serve: Once you reach the desired ratio (typically 3 to 5 parts water to 1 part absinthe), turn off the tap, give the drink a gentle stir, and enjoy.
With its 2L capacity and dual-tap design, the Fairy fountain allows you to host and prepare multiple drinks simultaneously, bringing the authentic 19th-century French café experience straight to your table.
