Elevate Your Drink Experience with Highball Glasses
Whether you enjoy cocktails and the art of mixology or simply appreciate a well-presented drink, the glassware you choose to use is vital.
There are many sets of highball glasses on the market, but the clarity and brilliance of a highball cup crafted from crystalline make a drink instantly look and feel elegant, elevating the whole drinking experience.
NUDE’s lead-free crystal glasses highball range is made skillfully with precision to not only look good but also enhance the taste and aroma of the beverage served. Take a classic gin and tonic or sparkling water, for example. The clear appearance of these beverages appear dull and uninteresting without the addition of ice and a citrus slice or if they are served in a regular glass.
However, if you present a clear drink in an elegant highball crystal glass like one from the NUDE Wayne Set of 4 High Ball Glasses, the drink suddenly takes on a new life and looks far more sophisticated. The elongated shape, clean lines, and textural overlay of the glass add character to the presentation, and the long, straight sides focus the taste to the lips and subtle aroma and fizz to the nose so you can truly appreciate the nuances of the beverage. Likewise, you can lift the look of a milkshake, smoothie, or indulgent ice-cream cocktail by dressing it in highball glasses from a NUDE highball crystal glass.

NUDE modern highball glasses embody both beauty and function, and they are perfect for serving a wide variety of drinks to guests, including:

- Long Cocktails: A clear crystal highball glass is the best glass to choose when serving a Tom Collins, Whiskey Highball, Dark ‘n Stormy, or many other popular long cocktails. Aside from the glass's design appeal, the brilliance and clarity of lead-free crystal let the layers and color of the beverage shine through.
