Glasses

There are 8 main types of drinking glasses, each designed to complement the taste and bouquet of the wine or spirit it is intended to hold. The best quality glasses are full lead. or lead crystal; full lead crystal contains 30 per cent lead oxide, ;lead crystal contains 25 per cent lead oxide, and it is this addition that gives glassware its brightness and clarity weight and strength. The thinner and finer the glass the better the wine or spirit tastes.
