HEARTS ABSINTHE SPOON & 10 SUGAR CUBES + FREE SHIPPING !!!
This style of spoon is one of the oldest of all absinthe spoon designs and commonly referred to as
the “hearts” because of the heart designs on the grill in the middle of its handle. The grill is used
to hold the sugar cube while preparing a traditional absinthe. Drinkers
would turn the spoon upside
down and lay it across the glass to hold
their sugar cube.
This spoon is used in the preparation of a traditional French or Swiss
absinthe. A traditional
absinthe is prepared by pouring an ounce of
absinthe into an absinthe glass, then placing the
absinthe spoon on top
of the glass and a sugar cube atop the spoon. Ice water is slowly
dripped
from a fountain, carafe or balancier 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.
