#1 Long Playing Cards Absinthe Spoon

This style of long spoon is one of the oldest of all absinthe spoon designs and commonly referred to as 
the "playing card spoon" because of card designs on the grill in the middle of its handle. The grill is used 
to hold the sugar cube while preparing a traditional absinthe.

#15 Wormwood Leaf Absinthe Spoon

The Wormwood Absinthe Spoon is by far our most desired spoon. It is also one of the most sought-after
spoons by collectors of antique absinthe ware. The grille of the spoon features the grand wormwood plant,
Artemisia absinthium (the key ingredient in absinthe).

#14-A Eiffel Tower Absinthe Spoon

This reproduction absinthe spoon is among 8 known originally made to celebrate the introduction 
of the Eiffel Tower at the Exposition Universelle, a World's Fair held in Paris, France in 1889. There
are 3 spoons with same design, but with subtle differences, making the originals highly collectible.

#20 Stain Glass Window Absinthe Spoon

Like our #19 absinthe spoon, this ornate piece is said to resemble a stained glass window. 
Because of this detail, in France the spoon is commonly referred to as l'ouvragee (elaborate in French). 
The slender spoon features 8 crosses on the grill and a pronounced notch on the handle. 
It is also an exact reproduction of a late 19th century absinthe spoon.

  • Measures 6.5" (16.5 cm) in length.
  • Stainless steel.
  • Does not tarnish.
  • Dishwasher safe.
  • Also available in gold-plating.
  • Imported.
Sugar Cubes

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. 

These sugar tablets are the perfect size for sweetening your absinthe.
