On the gable-end to the right of the photo is the old-fashioned, but iconic ad which sent us to seek out this moded drink. See blog of 21 May 2009 A Vous la France.Today's advertisement promotes a very different style. Image our amazement that in a French supermarket not only was there no Dubonnet, but the check-out woman had never even heard of it!
It would appear many people have the same problem, including Her Gracious Majesty. The Queen is habituated to Dubonnet before luncheon, but Lords could not produce a bottle when she was there for the second ashes match. On air Aggers said Brenda needs a triple gin and Dubonnet before luncheon. Flunkies were sent to procure one, but security staff forbade them to bring in strong liquor until HM's superior guards pulled rank. Read this for yourself and join in at Souvenir Dubonnet.
