This vintage French Pernod Anisette water / juice carafe will add some bistro charm to any table!
It measures 6 1/8" tall, 3 1/2" wide at the base, 2 1/2" wide at the lip, has an 18 ounce capacity, and weighs 1 pound. The bottle is in excellent vintage condition with no chips or cracks. There is a label on both sides, and they are both intact but slightly faded--possibly from use at an outdoor cafe.
The oldest anise liqueur in France, Pernod is made from distillates of star anise, fennel and 14 other botanicals such as coriander and mint. It has a low liquorice content, which sets it apart from pastis. The original version included wormwood and was produced as absinthe at the Pernod Fils factory from 1805. The annisette was made in France, but the bottle was made in Italy.
