Arrow Absinthe Spoon Classic Stainless Steel 18/10 Sugar Spoons Wormwood Bar ToolsThis 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.
Stainless steel.
Will not tarnish.
Dishwasher safe.
Because of the high proof of alcohol, sugar will not dissolve in absinthe without first being
dissolved with water. It is for this reason that water is slowly dripped onto a sugar cube which
then enables the sugar water to mix more easily with the absinthe. Besides the French being known
for having a big sweet tooth, the sugar is also used to cut the bitterness of absinthe. It was highly
frowned upon to drink absinthe without sugar during the pre-ban era.
