For a time in the late 19th century Absinthe Fountains were popular in swanky high end bars due to their high expense. This is not always so now, as they are becoming more prevalent in the bar and are thus more widely available at an accommodating price. This fountain can be used with 4 glasses at a time with its four spouts. It stands 15.75″ tall and 11″ wide. The mouth-blown glass globe holds approximately 34 ounces of liquid. This absinthe fountain is very easy to use and makes the perfect centerpiece at a table in any bar or restaurant setting.
Just place the absinthe spoon and sugar atop the glasses and the glasses beneath the pour spouts. Turn the spigot slowly and let the cold water flow over the sugar until it has completely dissolved into the absinthe. This action releases oils and perfumes the air with fennel, grand wormwood and anise. The combination of the sugar water and absinthe begins to turn milky white in color, as the water mixes with the anise. Refresh water before each use.
