Choosing your digestif glass

Which shape for which spirit?

The shape guides the tasting. A narrowed bowl, like the brandy glass, concentrates aromas towards the nose. A low, wide tumbler, typical of the whiskey glass, leaves room for ice. Small formats such as the liquor glass and the shot glass suit short, neat servings.

Which capacity should you plan for?

Volumes vary greatly with use: a few centilitres for a shot or a liquor, more for a whiskey on the rocks. Choose the capacity according to your serving measure to ensure a consistent presentation and to control your portions.

Which material and durability?

For intensive use in a bar or restaurant, choose glasses that are dishwasher-safe and shock-resistant. A thick base adds stability, useful for shots and low tumblers frequently set down on the counter.
