Rare vintage Ricard Pacific sugar-free aniseed drink miniature bottle
AFW - Antique France Worldwide
Description This miniature bottle features a small transparent glass bottle, filled with a cloudy pale yellow liquid, typical of anise-based drinks. The bottle is sealed with a blue screw cap, clearly visible on the top. On the front, a colorful label dominates, with "PACIFIC" written in yellow on a blue background, accompanied by the name "Ricard" in more discreet white letters just below. The label also features an illustration of stylized sailboats against a blue sky and clouds, giving it a retro and summery look.
The lower part of the label specifies "Boisson aux extraits d’anis" (Drink with anise extracts) and "Boisson sans sucre" (Sugar-free drink), indicating that it is a non-alcoholic anise-flavored drink produced by Ricard. The text at the bottom of the label, although partially legible, appears to contain legal notices and ingredients, typical of food or bar products from past decades.
The bottle's shape is straight with rounded shoulders, a narrow neck, and a flat base. The overall condition of the bottle appears good, with no visible chips on the shown side, and the label, though slightly aged, remains legible and adheres correctly to the glass. The color of the liquid may have changed over time, which is common for this type of item kept as a souvenir or bar object.
This type of Ricard Pacific miniature is characteristic of promotional productions or samples distributed in the 1980s-1990s, recognizable by its vibrant blue graphics and the emblematic Ricard brand typography. The overall appearance, presentation, and the mention of "vintage" in the keywords correspond to an old object, sought after for its decorative value or as an advertising artifact.
The object visible here is intended for bar decoration, themed display cases, or collections of famous brand miniatures. Its colorful presentation and compact size make it an easy piece to display.
Condition Used item and sold as is. The displayed bottle appears in good visual condition on the presented side, without chips or glass breakage. The label shows slight traces of time (slight patina) but remains very legible. The liquid inside has retained a cloudy yellow color, typical of this type of anise-flavored drink.
