It's funny how the Herbsaint is so dark amber when neat and turns almost correctly green once water is added.

the one that got away...

Dammit Crosby, you have my two glasses!

One of these days I'm going to win the lotto and become Ian's best customer.

This spoon should be arriving soon. I should've had it by now, but there were problems encountered...

I need to reshoot the Herbsaint, I'd say that it isn't quite as dark amber as the photo looks...........perhaps it's toward the dead leaf color. (I think the computer table color affected the photo)

Vintage Herbsaint does louche like a vintage type absinthe, very pretty as it blooms in the glass.

From what I was told (vintage) Herbsaint was similiar to (old) Pernod, sans wormwood.........not being the most herb savvy person out there, I can't say what is in the (old) Herbsaint, but I can say that I believe it to have been a good product in it's day.

Sad that what it is today is not the same.

Who was the lucky person who won the auction for this bottle?

Hmm, doesn't look at all like the signature on the check I stole from his house, er, saw at his house...

It's sort of like a Pontarlier glass crossbred with an East glass...

Height is something like 7.25 inches. Dose is exactly 1oz (30ml). Never filled it past the cuts, but the top of the cut's is the 5:1 ratio, I imagine your glass is similar. The mouth is particularly wide, the only way to fit a spoon on it is to sit it close to the edge of the glass as opposed to dead center.
Wolfgang
...Or use a long "Les cuilleres" ?

My glass is only 5.7" and the dose is 1/2 ounce. The top of the cut is the 5:1 ratio on mine as well...

Jack, your new spoon is pretty impressive, but I went with the upgraded fish within a fish style. That extra fish is handy at keeping those chunks of sugar from falling through.

I noticed it doesn't alter the flavour of the Un Emile products.

Nice stuff Rimmy!

And Scorpio... I don't think I'll be bidding against you on anything else. I always get outbid!
Porkio
Esnipe.com. Cheating is the only way to go. You won't have to worry about it now though cause I gots no auction skrilla left since I won that glass.

Same here, although I did just win an East-style glass, but I got it at a really good price! No more eBay for me 'til after the holidays...

You guys are spending too much money on shit that's gonna break, and not enough money on booze!
Rimbaud
You're right. Need more absinthe!!!!!
Sambeau
Here's my stuff. On the left a reservoir. On the right, I'm not sure. It is the same style as in the Absinthe Bourgeois Ad.

I would be willing to trade you jesus for that glass Rimmy, it's one of the best I have seen. Care to reveal the source? I've been watching ebay for quite some time and never saw that particular item offered. wave.gif
