Whisky Glasses: Choose Wisely. Choose Glencairn.

1/28/2022

 
Picture
For those starting their journey into the world of Scotch Whisky, selecting the right malt can sometimes be confusing and downright intimidating. However, a great starting point is choosing the right #whiskyglass. A good choice there would be to choose the world’s favorite glass for those who know whiskies of all types - The Glencairn Glass. This is the glass designed and owned by our friends at Glencairn Crystal that was created to help us enjoy all the character and all the subtle nuances of our favorite tipple. 

And while there may be plenty to learn about the many great distilleries from Scotland when you are beginning, we’ve found a great article from Distiller.com to steer you in the right direction. Here’s a link to their article on great "beginner" Scotch whiskies to start your education with:
https://distiller.com/articles/our-favorite-beginner-scotch-whisky-picks

Meanwhile, while you may worry about the choosing the right whisky, you should never worry about the glass you drink it from. Choose wisely. Choose Glencairn.

​Both you - and your guests - will be glad you did.

Your American Single Malt Whiskey Deserves A Great Glass, Too!

1/12/2022

 
Picture
There are a great many whiskies that come from, literally, all corners of the globe. But, when you hear the term “single malt whisky” the first thought is of Scotland as the origin. However, the Whisky Advocate magazine just published a terrific story on the growing emergence of American Single Malt Whiskeys. In their story, writer Ted Simmons offers up several examples what’s available and how different American single malt whiskeys can be.

Here’s a link to the story:
https://www.whiskyadvocate.com/7-distinctive-american-single-malt-whiskeys-to-try-now/

The good news is that no matter what part of the world you choose your whisky from, we have a variety of #bestinclass whisky glasses to drink it from. Starting with the world’s favorite whisky glass The Glencairn Glass and our own Nosing Glass, the possibilities to make your customers smile are endless. Cheers!

Discovering New Wine Regions - And New Wine Glass Collections!

1/6/2022

 
Picture
At Stölzle, we love discovering new wines and new wine regions and we’re thinking many of you do, as well. Recently, the website Travel Awaits showcased 4 great Northern California wine regions that don’t always get the love that, say, the Napa Valley region does. However, these regions have got great wines and great hospitality, so we’re putting them on our travel planner for our next trip out west. Maybe you should, as well.

And, just like discovering new wines or new wine regions is fun, so is discovering a great new wine glass collection. Our EVENT collection is designed to be the perfect combination of hi-performance and classic beauty. And if your operation is a busy, high-volume location – not to worry. EVENT is made with durability in mind, so even your accountant will smile.
​Cheers!

Thanksgiving Wine Shopping? Focus on Enjoying Your Guests Rather Than Worrying About The Wine

11/16/2021

 
Picture
With the Thanksgiving holiday fast approaching here in America, choosing a good wine to pair with your meal should not be complicated. Nor should it require a host to be a certified sommelier. And, it doesn’t have to be particularly expensive. Just like our #wineglass collection, we much prefer our wines to be #approachable. 

So, if you don’t happen to be a certified sommelier (and even if you are), we recommend that same path when selecting your holiday wines. This will allow you to concentrate more on enjoying your guests rather than worrying about whether or not you have chosen the ultimately perfect wines.

That’s why we were excited to see that Oprah Daily recently published a great article showcasing 20 very approachable wines to accompany your Turkey Day meal. And, most of the wines they selected come in at under the $20 price point and a few slightly over $10. That's nice.

Here’s the link to their story:
https://www.oprahdaily.com/life/g29378327/best-thanksgiving-wines/
And, remember we’ve got a wide selection of great, high-performance wine glass collections that will make your wines – whether you are drinking reds or whites – add to the festivities and help put smiles on your guests faces.

And – a final wine-selection pro tip:
​#bubbles go with everything. With our wide range of flutes, we have you covered there, as well!


More smiles on more faces.

HiConsumption: The 15 Best Rye Whiskeys to Drink Neat in 2021

11/12/2021

 
Picture
In a recent article, the website HiConsumption.com offers up The 15 Best Rye Whiskeys to Drink Neat in 2021. Author Grady Van Dyke gives his views on the current state of the rye whiskey category, how a rye whiskey differs from a bourbon and his opinions on some pretty darn good rye whiskeys.

Now, the term “best whiskey” is always going to be the starting ground for good, friendly debates. But there can be no debate when it comes to the best whiskey glassware. The Stölzle lineup of glassware is simply unmatched at raising the flavor profile of our favorite whiskeys to be their very best. So, as the holidays approach, make sure you are serving your guests well.

​Great whiskeys, served in great glassware. And always enjoyed by great guests. Cheers!

Richer Reds + Performance Glassware = Delicious Enjoyment

11/3/2021

 
Picture
Recently, the noted British wine writer for The Guardian newspaper, Fiona Beckett extolled the pleasures of migrating to bigger, richer reds as the nights grow longer and the temperatures begin to drop. Beckett shares her love for some of her favorite values from local UK supermarket stores.

As the clocks change and the leaves fall from the trees, we have to agree with that sentiment of seeking out great value reds to add to the cooler, crispier evenings. Lately, our favorites are coming more and more from Spain and seem to be primarily Tempranillo or Tempranillo blends.

Whatever reds you choose as your everyday go-to wines this season, make sure you have just the right glassware to bring out their very best flavor profile possible.

At 
Stölzle, we’ve got a wide assortment of wine glass shapes and sizes to do just that.
 
Our current favorite red wine glass is from our QUATROPHIL collection and its our nearly 23 oz. Cab/Bordeaux glass. This glass is great all-rounder that both enhances and directs all that red lusciousness to all the right spots. Cheers!

More smiles on more faces.
