My Fav Stemless Glass

My Fav Stemless Glass is Esplanda-branded drinkware, a glass with a bowl and no stem. The stemless shape sits low in the hand and stands steadier on a counter or table than a stemmed glass. Specific capacity, material and dimensions aren't listed here, so check the product specifications before you plan around a pour size. Stemless glasses suit casual, everyday drinking. They work well for wine, since a bowl shape lets the wine breathe and gathers aromas toward the rim. The trade-off is that your hand touches the bowl. Chilled whites, rosés and sparkling wines warm faster in the hand, so hold the glass loosely near the base or pour smaller amounts more often. Reds and other wines served near cool room temperature are less affected by this. The same shape handles other drinks. Spritzes, sangria and wine-based cocktails over ice work well in it, and so do on-the-rocks pours of whisky, rum or amaro if the bowl is wide enough for a large cube. For a neat sipping pour of spirits, a glass that narrows at the rim will concentrate aroma better than a straight-sided tumbler. For beer, cider and soft drinks, any stemless glass is a convenient everyday option. If you're buying it as a gift or to pair with something, it goes naturally with a bottle of wine, a cocktail kit or a set of mixers. Hand-wash it if you want to keep any printed or etched branding in good condition. Check the product listing for care instructions, because dishwasher suitability depends on the material and the finish.
