RIEDEL Drink Specific Glassware Nick & Nora Cocktail Glass

Very stylish old school cocktail glass. The perfect size for a classic Martini or Gibson, i.e. 2oz gin, 1oz vermouth + olive or onion. Some negative reviews have said they're too small. They're only too small for a drink that is meant to be drunk from an entirely different kind of glass. Other negative reviews focus on fragility. I can only say that they appear to be no more fragile than other delicate glasses I have. They need to be handled carefully but so does any other decent glass. I like them very much.

Perfect glasses - been on the look out for nice Nick & Nora glasses and these are they..

These are such beautiful, delicate Nick & Nora glasses. Perfect size and elegant shape. Superb quality They are my favourite glasses to drink from

Smaller than my usual cocktail glass but perfect when restrained. Some of my guests prefer the smaller cocktail (which I gather is a normal size).

Though I like the glasses I have only given four stars because I can't get used to the size of the base. The shape of the bowl is great, and just the right size for a double martini or any short cocktail. The glasses seem well made, but the base just does no seem right. It is about the same size as the rim of the bowl, but just looks too big to me. This is, of course, just my opinion, and others may think it is fine. They look great in the glasses cabinet, but when I take one out to use, I generally put it back and take out another Nick and Nora glass that I find more aesthetically pleasing. Shame really as the bowl is so lovely, but the glasses probably will not get as much use as I had expected.

Lovely little Nick and Nora’s Second time bought.

Fantastic cocktail glasses! Exactly what I’ve been looking for. Fabulous!!

Perfect size and great quality.

Gorgeous, small coupe martini glasses. Perfect size for the perfect martini. I did break my first pair, my fault! So you do have to be careful with them. But they are classic and modern. Loved them enough to but a second set!

Might be slightly smaller than anticipated but adds to the retro feel. Still holds a double martini absolutely fine.

I've always found the traditional 'martini' glass top-heavy and just too big. When I saw these I thought they'd be perfect. And they are. They hold a double-shot martini or negroni perfectly. The fine rim and shape make them a pleasure to drink from. The base is quite large and weighty (in a good way!). They never feel like they're going to tip. Highly recommended!

Riedel Drink Specific, and especially the cocktail glasses, are absolutely fantastic glasses. As thin and delicate as they seem, they hold up very well. A joy to drink from and they look great.

What can I say except that this glassware exudes elegance!!
