Highland Mixing Glass by Viski

A mixing glass is designed specifically for stirred cocktails, such as Martinis, Manhattans, or Negronis. It allows you to chill and dilute spirits without aerating them, which preserves the silky texture of the drink.

Yes, the weighted base provides essential stability. It keeps the glass firmly in place on your bar top while you stir, preventing it from sliding or tipping over during vigorous mixing.

While the fancy cut glass design is primarily for visual appeal, the texture also provides a better grip. This makes it easier to hold the glass securely while you stir, even if your hands are slightly damp.

While you can stir in a shaker, a dedicated mixing glass is preferred because the thick glass walls provide better thermal insulation. This keeps your drink cold longer while you stir and allows you to monitor the clarity and dilution of the cocktail visually.

To preserve the clarity and finish of the cut glass, we recommend hand washing with mild soap and warm water. Avoid using harsh abrasive scrubbers that could scratch the surface over time.
