Martini Glasses

The Martini glass is an iconic symbol of cocktails.

Martinis should be served neat (no ice). Only fine Czech crystal artisans can provide the clarity and weight a fine martini deserves.

Stirred, not shaken, Mr. Bond?

Usually drinks are chilled by shaking or stirring with ice prior to serving into the glass. To get ultra cold drinks, the glass should be frozen a few hours before serving.

Either way, the clarity of the crystal reigns supreme.

Variations of the Cocktail Glass / Martini Glass

The double martini glass is popular these days, taller and wider at the opening than a standard martini glass.

Another variation is the stub glass, which is identical to the martini glass, except that the base is attached directly to the bowl, removing the fragile stem and adding weight to the base. Many men seem to prefer this style.
