Personalised Brandy Glass: Express Your Feelings with Carved Gifts

Posted by Crystalgift on October 6th, 2015

Drinking glasses come in all sorts of shapes and sizes, and they make great gifts for all occasions. If you are looking for a nice gift for someone who loves to tipple, personalised wine and brandy glasses make great choices for a memorable present. Brandy glasses like most crystals, can be engraved with special messages to commemorate a special occasion or memorialise an event. They can also be monogrammed or stamped with the recipient's name to make your gift extra special. Expressing your thoughts and feelings through your gifts is made easy with personalised, engraved glasses and crystals.

All drinking glasses are not the same and knowing the difference between each will help you in choosing the right gift for a discerning tippler. Remember that there is a proper glass for drinking different types of wines and spirits, and even beer. These glasses are specially designed to maximise the aroma and flavour of drinks in different ways.

Red and white wine glasses are probably the most classic. They come in a tulip shape with wide bowls that tapers around the glass rim. This directs the aroma of the wine to your nose. Long stems keep the warmth of your hands from altering the temperature of the wine and affecting its taste. This particular shape also allows you to swirl the wine around and release its aroma. This contributes to the drink's flavour. There are four major types of red and white wine glasses, namely elongated tulips and bowl-shaped glasses, which are best for robust red and fruity wines, respectively. Small, slender tulip glasses and small bowl-shaped glasses, on the other hand, are perfect for light-bodied white wines and chardonnays, respectively.

When it comes to personalised brandy glasses, you have three major types to choose from. Classic/traditional brandy glasses or snifters are much like a short and stout tulip wine glass. This helps the drinker take in the drink's aroma and flavour better. The short stem allows the glass to be held-in-palm so the liquor can be warmed and release more flavour. Cognac glasses, on the other hand, have a unique tulip shape that tapers around the upper portion of the glass and slightly opens up in the rim, which allows for tasting nuances. Whiskey glasses on the other hand, are also great for drinking either whiskey or brandy. Their elongated shape helps create an aromatic experience while the flared rim helps accentuate the drink's sweetness.
