Riedel Fizz Glass Drinks Specifik Glasserie 6417/03 - 2 pcs.

The bubbles need room to rise, and the drink needs to stay cold for as long as possible. Riedel Fizz Glass is the tall, narrow model in the Drinks Specific Glassware series, borrowing its logic from a champagne flute and adapting it for the bar.

The Expert’s Description

Riedel Fizz Glass is a tall cocktail glass from the Drinks Specific Glassware series by the Austrian glassmaker Riedel, made from machine-blown crystal glass and shaped for cocktails with bubbles, such as a Gin Fizz.

The shape draws on the same thinking as a champagne flute, where a tall, narrow body holds onto the bubbles longer than a wide bowl would. If you'd rather mix with sparkling wine than a cocktail, take a look at our range of Champagne & Sparkling Wine.

Design & Material

The tall, narrow shape reduces the glass's surface area, which holds onto the carbonation from soda or tonic longer than a wide glass would. The crystal glass is machine-blown and just as thin-walled as the rest of the Drinks Specific Glassware series.

Use & Recommendation

Fizz Glass is designed for cocktails with bubbles or carbonation, where you want the fizz to last as long as possible. The glass is dishwasher safe and works well both for everyday use and for serving guests.
