We would know since we were some of the first folks to make sensory-focused coffee glasses. But before making those, we loved to use wine glasses and we often return due to their versatility and beauty. We are lovers of natural wines and the inherent acidity and fresh aromatics that come with them - reminding us a lot of some of the best modern processed coffees.  Wine and coffee processing have more and more in common as time passes and we wanted to create a special glass to celebrate both. What started as a project to make the perfect glass for natural orange wines became our favourite glass for wines and coffees.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0769\/2704\/1866\/files\/wine-glass-1.png?v=1748191563\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE SHAPE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe obsessed over finding the perfect shape. Most wine glasses have a very low-to-the-ground bottom, which creates a heaviness and makes it awkward to hold. The designers do this in order to create a shallow thin layer of wine, at a detriment to usability. The glass then feels like it always wants to fall out of your hand and it's not enjoyable to hold or swirl. We designed for comfort with a higher curve and a much more balanced feel in the hand. A true delight!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE FOCUS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe love the external shape of red wine glasses because they are spacious and more comfortable in the hand compared to narrow glasses made for fruitier lighter wines. But the narrower glasses make exciting wines (or coffees) shine more by directing the aromas more directly to the nose. They also lower the amount of oxygen in the glass to prevent a loss of vibrancy too quickly. We wanted to have the best of both worlds and designed a glass that does both - spacious in the hand, but narrow in the glass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0769\/2704\/1866\/files\/wine-glass-2.png?v=1748191586\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe PUNT\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur wine glass features a massive dimple (punt) in the middle, creating a huge negative space to help us achieve a narrow and shallow interior but maintain a wide and comfortable exterior. The punt also serves as a visual queue of where you should fill your glass to, keeping the right volume in the glass for the perfect sensory experience. The punt also acts as an aerator, as we decant, with force, directly onto it. This will further oxygenate the beverage to make it more vibrant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE SCIENCE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsing this shape we create a perfect environment for the ultimate sensory experience, as when you drink, the punt will force all aroma to completely surround the nose, pushing and narrowing the space in the glass. The wide shape is an illusion for what is in fact a much narrower glass - highlighting delicate aromatics in natural wines and in special coffees. Furthermore, the increased surface area of the bottom will keep cool drinks cooler for longer and will help cool down coffees quicker, bringing them to the perfect drinking temperature quickly for the perfect sip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0769\/2704\/1866\/files\/wine-glass-3.png?v=1748191608\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE QUALITY \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur glassware is hand-blown by skilled craftspeople in the same factory that we have been making glassware for about four years now, in Indonesia. We use lab-grade borosilicate glass that is heat resistant and more durable than standard lime glass. Each glass undergoes over 10 steps of processing, care, and QC until it reaches its sturdy box and prepares its journey to a new home. Our prices are set to pay a fair price for these beautiful pieces that are individually crafted by a human being at a capacity of around 20 pieces per worker per day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE HARMONY \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHow do you create the perfect symphony in the palm of your hand?

We took this to heart and travelled to our manufacturing partner in China to work for a day with their master glass blower to find the right shape and right compromise in the spout. We went through over 40 iterations together to land on the current design. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat most people don't know is that all of the spouts (on any server) are made by hand, using simple tools like knives. The way the material reacts to pressure or material thickness is quite organic and therefore it is sometimes difficult for glass blowers to replicate spout designs made by designers in CAD. For this reason, we wanted to go there and just hand-design something that works better through trial-and-error using the real techniques. Given that they are made by hand, you can expect small variations unit to unit too, but the general functionality should not change. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur result was something we were happy with - no dribbling, with nice pouring, within a sensory shape. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/6609\/1928\/files\/sensory-carafe-3.png?v=1769775320\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003ePOURING BLISS\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSensory-first carafes usually pour terribly.
