The Right Glass for Every Drink
Glass shape affects how a wine or cocktail smells and tastes — not dramatically, but noticeably. A wider bowl lets a red wine breathe and concentrates the aroma. A narrow flute keeps champagne carbonated longer. A martini glass keeps the drink cold by keeping your hand off the bowl. At Tarzian West for Housewares, Brooklyn's neighborhood kitchen store for over 50 years, our wine and cocktail glass collection runs from everyday sets to serious crystal.
