This glass is an intentional vessel for the traditional sour, designed to negotiate the delicate interplay between bright citrus and spirit. It belongs to the Drink Specific collection by Riedel, an Austrian family company that has refined the architecture of glass since 1756.
The signature outward-flared lip directs the liquid to the tip of the tongue, emphasizing sweetness to balance sharp acidity for a rounded profile. Its silhouette is built for precise temperature control, specifically when ice is added via spoon to preserve the cocktail’s characteristic foam.
