Different types of glassware bring out the best in an alcoholic drink. For instance, tulip-shaped glasses with smooth curves are ideal for beers with the strongest aromas as they give you a lot of space to breathe it all in.

The purpose of stems on glasses is to allow the person holding it to enjoy the drink at its proper temperature. Holding the glass by its stem prevents the warmth of the palm from altering the drink's condition.

As we know, red and white wines need to be put in specific glasses. For red wines, they are poured into a glass whose bowl is larger than that of a white wine’s. As red wines’ characteristics are bolder, a larger bowl is required to bring out their aromas and flavors.

Shot glasses come in two sizes, single or double. Shot glasses are versatile as they can be used for serving distilled spirits and coffees. They're used as measuring tools, too especially when mixing cocktails and coffee concoctions.

Did you know that most of the terms in glassware are also used for other things? Here are some examples: bowl (the glass’ main, circular structure), rim (the top edge of the bowl), and stem (structure connecting the bowl to the base; not present in all glasses).

Ever wonder why wine needs to be put in specific glasses? For white wines, the smaller bowl and taller stem allows the drinker a better grip on the stem. This way, their hands won’t warm the bowl and interfere with the wine’s crisp flavor.
