Why this mixing glasse earns its place
The larger mixing glass is for the serious work — bigger drinks, more ingredients to marry together, more time at the stir to reach proper balance. At 550ml (just over a pint), it gives you the space you need when you're building a drinks menu that goes beyond classics. Three-ingredient Negronis and five-ingredient house specials both get the room they need to blend properly.
Handmade clear glass means you can watch the whole process. See the temperature equalize, judge the ice melt, know precisely when you've reached the silky texture that marks a well-stirred drink. The retro diamond pattern grips your hand as you stir, and the design stays true to cocktail tradition — this is how mixing glasses have been shaped for a century because the shape works.
At 1.73 kg, this glass has proper weight in your hand. It feels intentional and professional. The pour lip is your control point for the transfer — tip the glass smoothly and cleanly into the serving glass. Handmade variations mean no two are quite identical, which is a mark of honest production, not a flaw.
