Why this gin glasse earns its place
The Spanish understand gin. It's the spirit they drink most—per head of population, more than anywhere else on earth. This glass is shaped around that culture: a generous balloon bowl that sits on a clear stem, 178mm tall, with a 116mm diameter that feels substantial in the hand.
The size is deliberate. Those 696ml create room that matters: ice and generous lime wedge nestle comfortably, and the wide mouth lets you nose the gin's botanicals while you drink. You're not fighting a narrow vessel to reach it. The rim is wide enough to garnish properly without cramping, wide enough to sip from without hesitation.
Schott Zwiesel is German manufacturing, which means precision glass—no chips, no wobble, real durability on the pass and in the dishwasher. The 24.5oz measure sits between a standard serve and a generous one; bartenders can work with it. Clear glass lets the drink speak: the colour of the liquid, the ice, the slice. For gin bars, cocktail lounges, and any venue taking gin seriously, this is the right glass.
