The drinking glasses you place on the table are more than just containers for drinks. They are a statement of your style, but they can also symbolize respect and appreciation for your guests.
There are several factors that justify the importance of the right drinking glass for every drink. For beer and wine in particular, the different features of the drink - taste, temperature, perlage (bubbles) - can be emphasized by the shape of the drinking glass, thus contributing to a perfect tasting experience. If the wine glass or beer glass is not shaped to suit the type of drink, it can attenuate the aroma or effervescence, which is particularly undesirable with expensive and remarkable drinks.
Even the way our hand touches the drinking glass affects the temperature of the drink. The heat generated by our body warms the drink. This is the reason (but not the only one) why people drink wine from stemmed glasses, and the drinking glass is never hold by the bowl.
A great dining experience starts with the right tableware. A set of harmoniously designed water glasses complemented by coasters impress and contribute to the elegant picture of the whole table.
It's important to understand that a set of drinking glasses is not just about looks; they need to be made to high standards so that they withstand to daily use and cleaning. That's why it's important to choose top manufacturers known for their craftsmanship and attention to detail, such as the renowned German company Schott Zwiesel, which manufactures crystal drinking glasses.
Generally, crystal drinking glasses have a higher strength thanks to the crystal glass that has a high mineral content. We recommend to all those who want sturdy, shiny glassware with great clarity and a special clink, to choose ice buckets and crystal glass sets.
