Champagne glasses in different designs
Of course the design of your new champagne glasses is extremely important. There are two types of champagne glasses, the coupe and the flute. The flute is the most commonly used and has an elongated mould with a small opening from which to drink. The coupe, on the other hand, is a spherical glass with a wide opening. The advantage of the coupe is that the aroma of the champagne comes out better, which enhances the taste experience. Still, many people choose the traditional oblong glasses because they find this more appropriate for drinking champagne.
Champagne glasses in different materials
By far most champagne glasses are made of glass or crystal glass. The difference between these two types of glasses is in the lead that is added to the crystal glasses. This makes the glasses thinner and clearer. However, the amount of lead added is only minimal, which is why champagne glasses should not bear the name crystal, but rather the name crystal glass. A crystal champagne glass is usually considered the most ornate option to drink your champagne from. Besides these two types of glass, we also have some champagne glasses made of stainless steel and plastic. The advantage of these is that they don't break easily.
How long can you store champagne?
Champagne can be kept for several years, but is best drunk within the first or second year. After that, the quality of the champagne deteriorates. Champagne should be kept in a cool, dark place, away from heat sources. Once opened, champagne should be drunk within a day or two. It is best to keep champagne in the refrigerator, as the cooler temperature helps preserve the bubbles and flavor. However, if you do not plan to drink the champagne within a day or two, there is no need to keep it in the refrigerator. Just be sure to keep the champagne away from heat sources .
How do you choose the right champagne glasses?
Choosing the right champagne glasses can be a challenge, but it is essential for experiencing the full flavor and aroma of the champagne. Below are some tips to help you choose the right champagne glasses.
- Type of glass: There are three main types of champagne glasses: flutes, coupes and tulips. Flutes are long and thin and have a narrow opening. They are popular because of their elegant appearance and their ability to hold the carbonated bubbles of champagne. Champagne glasses like coupes are wider and shallower and have a wide opening. They are often seen in vintage movies and have a nostalgic look. Tulips have a slightly wider opening than flutes and are narrower than coupes. They are designed to hold the aromas of champagne and are ideal for higher quality champagne.
- Material: champagne glasses are usually made of crystal or glass. Crystal is preferred because of the clarity and lightness of the material. However, it is also more expensive and can be more breakable than glass. Glass is more affordable and can often be cleaned in the dishwasher.
- Size: The size of the champagne glass is important because it determines the amount of champagne you can pour. Too large a glass can mean that your champagne loses the bubbles quickly, while too small a champagne glass can mean that you cannot fully appreciate the aromas and flavors of the champagne.
- Brand: There are many brands that specialize in making champagne glasses. When you choose a reputable brand, you can be sure that you are getting quality. Some leading brands are: L' Atelier du Vin, Riedel, Schott Zwiesel, Leonardo and Nachtmann.
- Personal preference: Finally, it is important to remember that choosing the right champagne glasses depends largely on personal preference. Compare several glasses and choose the one that suits you best and accentuates the flavor and aroma of the champagne.
By considering these factors, you can choose the right champagne glasses that suit your needs and taste. Enjoy your champagne in style!
