Kate Dingwall, who updated this roundup,is an experienced wine writer and working sommelier. She personally tested each highball glass on this roundup. Our gin glasses and sets are all beautifully presented in satin-lined gift boxes making the perfect choice of present for any occasion. If you would like your gin glass engraved before despatch, we offer a range of personalised gin glasses, available with next-day delivery. We use traditional diamond engraving and laser engraving techniques for all of our personalised glassware, which results in a perfect finish. Made from non-leaded crystal, these 12-ounce highballs are dishwasher safe and come in either clear or pink... in case you like drinking through rose-colored glasses. We observed that, while you can certainly drink carbonated beverages from this glass, its curved shape doesn’t retain the carbonation of a drink as well as a traditional highball glass. That said, the wider mouth of these glasses allow your nose to absorb more nuances, such as juniper and citrus in gin or agave notes in tequila. Overall, Godinger's heavy glasses offer vintage pizzazz without asking you to dig through an antique shop to find a matching set.

Proudly distilled in England, this enigmatic potion perfectly blends together notes of cherry and hibiscus for a delicately sweet and floral palette. While subtle hints of elderberry introduce a tart balance and endow the gin with its striking purple hue. These classic highball glasses come highly recommended by bartender Christian Nguyen of Seattle's award-winning bar and restaurant Artusi. "They're sturdy as hell with good weight on them," says Nguyen. Their sturdiness and classic appearance are favorite factors from both Nguyen and Ryan Pendergast, head bartender at Bourbon Steak in Nashville.If you’re a fan of the dishwasher, it might be wise to steer clear of these glasses. For your average evening in, there’s nothing wrong with a dishwasher-safe glass, and most are nearly as elegant. But that's not all – at the touch of a button, a light concealed within the base of the orb-shaped bottle illuminates the spirit to create a mystical glittery glow. Suffice to say, it's an otherworldly drinking experience and it deserves to be front and centre in your drinks cabinet - or at least in a prominent space to catch the eye of curious passers-by. If you like something with a bit more glamour, our Diamante Collection gin glasses are all decorated with Swarovski Elements, providing sparkle to your gin and tonic and a little tasteful bling.
