| Absinthe Pernod Fils "Garanti Fabriqué en 1913" This is the classic "benchmark" Pernod Fils with the labels overprinted "Fabriqué en 1913" (made in 1913). This is a very rare bottling - these bottles were the very last stock produced by Pernod before the ban in 1914. They were sent to Holland for safekeeping and a small quantity were released 25 years later for export in 1938 with this special overprinted label. The balance of the stocks was unfortunately destroyed by bombing during the war. Photos show the bottle still covered in the original cellar dust! |

| We had never done anything quite like this before: At Finest & Rarest we wanted to celebrate years of success with something very special for our clients, guess what we did... We cracked open some bottles. 2 bottles of Armagnac, 3 bottles of Cognac, 3 bottles of Rum, and 1 bottle of Calvados. Nothing modern, but exclusively bottles from 1858 to 1960! We thought that it would be a great idea to offer samples from these wonderful bottles so that our clients could enjoy the prestigious spirits they contain without having to purchase a full bottle. Plus, we think that they make incredible and unusual gifts for birthdays and the year-end season. Imagine yourself enjoying a glass of a 150+ year old Cognac with your family and friends after a delicious dinner. That's exactly what we had in mind with this idea. |
