What are tall drinks? Also known as long drinks, these are cocktails that require taller glasses because of the added mixers and ice. One example of a tall drink is the highball (one part liqueur and one part mixer) usually served in a tumbler or a footed-type highball glass.

Wine and champagne glasses tend to be more expensive than usual drinkware because they are made with more expensive materials like crystal. However, they are also a lot more fragile so it's best to keep them tucked away until they're needed.

Ever wonder why wine glasses have long stems? Apparently this is so that the wine can stay at the proper temperature and not be heated by the drinker's palm. Also, wine glasses have different shapes and sizes based on the theory that these factors accentuate the drink’s flavors and tones.
