"A Cocktail Should Always Be Perfect" (Frank Meier)
Through the 1930s, the bars of Paris were the first port of call for American expats in search of a drink. A legendary hotel bar became one of the most select watering holes in the world and Frank Meier, the drink-shaker-in-charge, burnished a reputation for inventive concoctions that have become the stuff of legend.
While many bartenders of the era used a sherry glass to measure out ingredients, Meier employed a French glassmaker to produce a double-sided ‘jigger’ for measuring the perfect amounts of ingredients in the preparation of cocktails. Offered is a reproduction of the vintage Paris Hotel Bar Jigger, handcrafted in fine crystal by European artisans, with precise 2-ounces and 1-ounce measurements. Taller and more narrow than standard jiggers, which can help prevent spills while pouring. An exclusive, limited-edition bar accessory for the home and professional bartender alike. Offered in a Gift Box, for keeping or giving.
