hi everyone, I have a bit of a strange search going on, and I'm hoping someone here might be able to help.
a few years ago I spent some time in Spain, and was introduced to a certain type of decanter, or jug, called a "perone", or maybe it was a "berone", I don't remember exactly. anyway, I'm trying desperatly to find one of these as a Christmas present for a friend, and can't even find the slightest reference to one in the Internet. it's unique in that at meals, no one uses a glass for their wine, instead, they take this "perone" and pours wine directly from it into their mouth, stopping the flow of wine with a neat little flick of the wrist. does anyone here know where I might be able to find one of these, short of going back to Spain?
thanks in advance,
-Jaufry
