What is a two and a half/ three foot tall champagne bottle called?!


Question:

What is a two and a half/ three foot tall champagne bottle called?

I'd like to find and buy a Moet&Chandon bottle this size?


Answers:
Dragonrider is correct, it is a Jeroboam, but in the industry we commonly just call them 3 Litres. I don't think I have ever heard them referred to as Jeroboam casually. Have your local merchant ask his sales person or supplier for a special order.
I am not sure how things work in the UK as I distribute in the US, but I imagine there is a similar route there.

I love it. What a treat for you. A magnum of champagne is what id call it and if you are going for M and C it will set you back a few quid although if you have any holiday planned where you are entitled to duty free i seen them in duty free for a heck of a saving. that was in dublin airport flying outside the eu. now i dont imagine it would actually save you the cost of a flight just if your going anyway thats all.
