Add the right sparkle to your drinks with our precision-cut designer glasses
Ideal for bubbles
There are two types of glasses for sparkling wines. The classic slim shape ensures that the fizz doesn't just disappear. Sparkling wine or champagne can also be served in exclusive bowl-type glasses. An open bottle will then remain reliably cool in a crystal ice cube decorated with hand-cut glass.
For whiskey and a drink
Shortball glasses are used to serve spirits with ice, typically whiskey, whose aroma stands out perfectly thanks to the shape of the glass. They are also suitable for short drinks, such as Bloody Marys or White Russians.
Cocktail classic
For cocktails with ice or a larger amount of ingredients, a highball glass with a volume of 250-450 ml is excellent. You can serve timeless classics such as Mojito, Cuba Libre or Tequila Sunrise in it. On the other hand, a glass with a foot and a conically open calyx is intended for Cosmopolitan and Martini.
Red or white?
The aroma and taste of red wines will stand out beautifully in a glass with a stem and a wide top, which allows the drink to be swirled to aerate. White wines have a less intense aroma than red wines, so narrower glasses are suitable for them.
For lager and special
Beer glasses are not just pint glasses. They are best suited for lagers. On the other hand, glasses that widen upwards are ideal for serving top-fermented or wheat beers.
