There is an Alhambra theatre in Bradford and there was a financial disaster called the Alhambra Palace in Blackpool from 1900. This three quarters of a pint measure may seem extravagant. however if you are going to endure three hours of Carmen it will be entirely requisite.
In this day and age we are advised that there is no safe level of alcohol consumption. The benefit of these decanter-measures if that you will know that you have only consumed three quarters of a pint of port or whisky.
