High quality beautiful glassware, perfect for port
These are beautiful, weighty glasses perfect for dessert wines. The titanium-crystal is beautiful, clear, sparkly, and has a nice weight to it. The rim, edges, and transitions are all smooth. The technology in these is great - they're durable and dishwasher safe, and so far, we haven't had any issue just throwing them in the dishwasher. We bought these glasses for port, mostly tawny ports, and the shape really accentuates these wines well. In general, it's hard buying glassware online, because you can't feel them, and cheaply-made products are hard to distinguish from quality products, like these. They feel like they should cost much more than they do.

Attractive glasses!!!
Very nice glasses that came well packaged and intact. The glass itself is good and not excessively thick. They have an awesome shape and can be used for drinking after-dinner drinks. They are not very big and that works well for me. Grappa is a very acquired taste and although these glasses are called grappa glasses, I will not use it for grappa!

Love These
These mini Coupes are fantastic. I love to mix cocktails at home for friends, often we like to sample many. Instead of passing around full sized 9oz cocktail glasses or coupes, we can each have our own glass, and sample many cocktails in an evening. The glasses are really beautiful and high quality. Everyone who has drunk from them has commented on how nice they are. As for size: basically a normal cocktail recipe will fill 3 of these glasses.

Stem feels cheap
There is a huge protruded mold line along the stem all the way. Can’t avoid touching that line when I hold the glass in hand, giving very unpleasant grip. The upper part of the glass is great with its shape and feeling on the lips, but stem is ruining the entire quality.

More than serviceable
Handsome glass, rather elegant shape. Maybe just a smidge too easily knocked over. But I would certainly get them again. (Perhaps not up to serious glass snob standards--the ridges noted by another reviewer, for example.)

Great Tequila Sipping Glasses
These are great glasses. Well made and sturdier than expected. Love the shape too. I use them for tequila sipping, they are perfect.

High quality. Perfect but tall, so need to be extra careful.
I love my Glencairn glasses for fine whiskey but I find it a bit large if I'd like to try more than 1 whiskey, especially with a smaller poured volume. These "grappa" glasses are **PERFECT** for 1/2 shots. They nose much better than the Glencairn and the quality is very high, rivals Spieglau and Riedel. Made in Germany. I prefer maybe a shorter stem for more stability but these are perfect.
