RIEDEL Drink Specifiek Glaswerk die Glas, 22oz mengen

Delivered as promised in good condition!

The glasses are very good quality and pretty. Good value.

A smaller set then our previous but still feels good in hand. Best thing it’s dishwasher proof. Will definitely buy again at this price.

This is the exact type of glass I was looking for for both neat and rocks. The weight feels good in the hand, the cuts are modern and not overly antiquated looking, and it is the perfect volume size for spirit drinking. A glass any bigger would spread a neat spirit too thin and a glass any smaller would make it impossible to have spirits on ice.

It’s not the most exclusive glass. There is a palpable seam on the stem, and, as this is my first experience with Riedel, I won’t speak to it’s quality or longetivity. That said, this was one of the top choices from editors of several mixology and cocktail-specific websites. We were specifically looking for the Nick and Nora glass (and there is whole world dedicated to this legendary moniker) and this shape was specifically visible in many scenes of the classic films. To start, the glass seems robust. the base is wider than the cup and, though fairly tall, it feels stable. The glass is reasonably thick without feeling clunky and the shape is just quite stunning. Volume-wise, it seems to hold what it should and it is nice to drink from. In short, for the price, it is a great buy, it is nice to use, doesn’t feel to fragile to handle and, most importantly, holds cocktails which one can drink from it.
