Highly collectible! Old ''Pastis Berger'' pitcher from Marseille, France. You can see on photo, a very little chip on the top part. Pastis was first created as an alternative to absinthe once the ban on absinthe production was enacted in France in 1915. Pastis has the same anise heavy formula, however it is made without wormwood (the banned substance) and is much lower in alcoholic volume. The word ''pastis'' is the French term for ''mixture''. It is most usually consumed diluted with water and is immensely popular in France during the summer months. h-7.5''/ w-7.5''/ d-4'' For the shipping...don''t worry, we ship from Texas (not from France)!
