Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Riedel Ouverture Spirits Glass, Set of 4Customer Review: Good Single Malt Scotch Nosing Glassware Summary: 4 Stars
I purchased these for Single Malt Scotch Whisky nosing/tasting.
Pros: Tulip shape works well to gather aromas. Clarity is good, allowing you to evaluate color. Easy to clean, and dishwasher safe. No lead used in manufacturing.
Cons: Stem could be shorter and the base of the bowl could be wider. Narrow lip makes tasting a bit awkward.
Overall: Great for nosing, tasting is ok. Good price and quality, but not the perfect nosing/tasting glass.
Description of Riedel Ouverture Spirits Glass, Set of 4Shaped for extracting full enjoyment when sipping eau de vie or other spirits, the four narrow glasses in this set are part of the moderately priced Ouverture series offered by world-renowned Austrian glassmaker Riedel Crystal (founded in 1756). Being lead-free, they're not crystal like Riedel's premium glasses but are machine blown of potash glass and are dishwasher-safe. Their thin rims are cut and polished to Riedel's exacting standards, so spirits flow easily onto the tongue and flavor is enhanced. Each glass holds 6-3/8 ounces and stands 6-7/8 inches high. --Fred Brack Shaped for extracting full enjoyment when sipping eau de vie or other spirits, the four narrow glasses in this set are part of the moderately priced Ouverture series offered by world-renowned Austrian glassmaker Riedel Crystal (founded in 1756).
