Absinthe Fountain

Absinthe is being sold again in the US - for the first time since 1912. And, already producers have cropped up. And so have the gadgets. Like the Absinthe Fountain - handmade from bown glass and brass, the set includes 4 absinthe glasses and spoons with perforations. Ice water is released from the fountain over a sugar cute in the spoon, draped over the absinthe-filled glass. This creates the milky cocktail much loved in Europe.
When I was in Amsterdam a couple of years ago, I really wanted to go to this famous Absinthe place. We flew the 13 hours and immediately spent the day sight seeing. Then, when we found that the cafe did not open until 10pm, decided to sleep instead. So, I have never tried absinthe.
If anyone has tried it, what do you think?

I work right down the street from St. George Spirits, where they’ve been trying for years to sell Absinthe. Now, $75 a bottle, so I don’t know when I’ll get to try it.
