Classic cocktails are an American invention and laid the ground work for cocktail industry as it stands today.  Many of the classic cocktail recipes were forgotten for decades but are now experiencing a resurgence.   The resurgence is the result of a core group of classic cocktail researchers and the current trend of enjoying quality ingredients with a historic flair.  We stock classic cocktail glasses the are perfect way of serving many of the vintage cocktails.    We hand select each cocktail glass based on  adherence to the style of glassware used during the pre-prohibition days when the cocktail reined supreme in the bars and saloons in America.

It is a good idea to chill a cocktail glass prior to pouring the cocktail ingredients from the cocktail shaker.  You should be gentle with the glass and never plunge a  cocktail glass directly into ice.  Simply add ice water to the glass and let it chill for a few minutes.  Never chill a cocktail glass that is taken directly from dishwasher and still hot.  The thermal shock can shatter the cocktail glass.
