Godinger Old Fashioned Whiskey Glasses, Italian Made Drinking Glasses, Glass Cups, Whiskey Gifts - Set of 4

Beautiful glasses. They have a nice weight to them. Properly packaged and arrived on time.

These glasses are nothing like the image. It has a very thin base and looks like local bar glasses.

It’s not Godinger. It’s not Italian. It’s Chinese made tacky glass. Sorry, had to return them.

Originally I had bought some pretty standard crystaline glass cups but had decided to search out something more clear/modern for a nicer presentation of clear ice I had recently gotten. I spent forever looking for ones that seemed like they’d have a good grip, weight and size. Eventually I landed on these. I was a little worried about buying without trying, but man I am impressed! They have a perfect amount of weight to them, feel incredibly sturdy and so far have survived my (admittedly underpowered old) dishwasher. They’re my go to glasses for making old fashioneds or straight pours of whiskey. Highly recommend pairing them with a clear ice cube mold (the big beefy boxes, not the standard sphere ones you’ll find anywhere), it really completes the look! Also, try using a drink smoker on top ;)

I decided to invest in these glasses to elevate my drinking experience and add a touch of sophistication to my home bar. I was kinda tired of serving guests out of the same glass for every drink. Pros: 1. Elegant Design: These glasses are beautifully designed. The classic and timeless look adds a touch of luxury to my whiskey-drinking ritual. 2. Quality Craftsmanship: The craftsmanship is top-notch. These glasses are made in Italy, and you know the Italians are known for fine glassware production, and you can feel the quality in your hand. 3. Perfect Size: The size of these glasses is just right for enjoying whiskey but if you want to use them for other stuff they are good too. They hold a generous amount without being too bulky, allowing you to savor the aroma and flavor of your favorite spirits. While they are perfect for whiskey, these glasses are also versatile enough to use for other cocktails or even as water glasses during formal dinners. 4. Solid Base: The weighted base of these glasses not only adds stability but also enhances the overall feel of the glass. It's a pleasure to hold and drink from. **Cons:** None that I’ve found. Final Thoughts: Ok so my own little rating system is the following: Buy, Wait for a sale, or Skip. These are definitely a BUY. Owning these whiskey glasses has truly enhanced my drinking experience. The elegant design, quality craftsmanship, and perfect size make them a joy to use. They are not only functional but also a statement piece for your home bar or dining table. Cheers to enjoying your favorite whiskey or other drink in style!
