Glass Verse-Eau, Brouilleur

SKU: 1200
€16,98

This facet-cut glass Verse-Eau (water pourer in French) is a single server used to slowly add water (and optional sugar) to absinthe. It is a reproduction of a glass brouilleur found in the late 19th century, which are highly sought after by collectors and difficult to find.

 A dose of absinthe is first poured into the glass and the glass Verse-Eau is placed on top of the glass. Ice is then placed inside the glass Verse-Eau and water is slowly poured over the ice from a carafe or pitcher. The ice water will begin to stream through a small hole located at its bottom into the absinthe below.

It is not suggested to completely fill the Verse-Eau with water. Doing so could quickly overfill the glass, or add too much water for your liking. The preferred method for use is to pour small amounts of water into the piece, in increments. This way the absinthe can be tasted and adjusted, before too much water is added.

Hole at the bottom of the Verse-Eau may vary from one piece to another, as they are each mouth-blown. Each hole is hand drilled using a diamond bit.

To use with sugar, place a cube (or stacked cubes) over the hole before the ice and water is added. The stream will slow as the sugar may slow the water flow. As the sugar begins to desolve into the water, the sugar water begins to stream into the glass of absinthe.

This brouilleur c///////// pour a dose of absinthe into an absinthe glass. The amount depends on the glass size, but it is usually one ounce. Then, lay an absinthe spoon across the rim of the glass and a sugar cube atop the spoon. The Balancier is then placed on the rim of the glass over the spoon, with the lever located over the sugar cube or cubes. Ice water is then added inside the reservoir. Once the water begins to pass through a small hole at the bottom of the reservoir, it streams onto the lever, creating a see-saw motion dispensing the water onto the sugar cube, thus falling into the glass of absinthe. All absinthes should be made to one's personal preference. Add more water or sugar if you prefer. Remove and enjoy! This piece is meant to be used for a single serving.

To use the Balancier without a spoon, the sugar is dropped into the reservoir, and cold water is poured in small increments. The sugary water will pass through the hole at its bottom onto the lever and be disbursed in the glass of absinthe below.
