I'd been holding onto a sample of 1914 Pernod Fils (from
Oxygénée) for a few years, waiting for a special occasion, and last October finally had an event worth such a momentous drink: I asked Liz to marry me :)
It tasted as wonderful as we'd expected! There was no question that we'd dilute it with a slow drip to enjoy the
louche. The far glass is antique (1860s?), purchased at
Lucullus in 2001.
