Men get your suits, women get your corsets: dance, drink and party like it’s 1899!
SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., Jan. 22 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Obsello Spanish absinthe verte is proud to support the 9th annual Edwardian Ball in San Francisco this year. Once just a one-night event, the ball has grown into a three-day extravaganza (Jan. 23 – Jan. 25) filled with art, burlesque, circus acts, music and all that is representative of the Edwardian Period and Edward Gorey – a mid-20th century artist, poet and musical composer.
In a nod to both history and art, authentic Obsello absinthe verte will be served in the traditional method using absinthe fountains, absinthe spoons and sugar cubes where the water is dripped slowly over the sugar and spoon, into the absinthe where it transitions in color from emerald green to opalescent mint white – a reaction that occurs when water pulls the alcohol away from the botanicals. Obsello is hand-crafted in small batches using a 100 year-old recipe, harkening back to a time when the green fairy was more widely consumed than wine.
“Years back, I had the pleasure of listening to Rosin Coven, and they will be performing at the Edwardian Ball. I enjoyed Rosin Coven’s music so much,” said distiller B. Alex, “that we decided to seek out an event that featured this music ensemble.”
Here is just a short list of performers and entertainment guests that will be featured at the ball:
Rasputina
Abney Park
Kinetic Steam Works
Rosin Coven
Vau de Vire Society
Jill Tracy
Cirque Berzerk
Agent Ribbons
The Ghosts Project featuring Paul Mercer
Fou Fou HA!
