Form vs Function
Gibraltar, tall, rocks, shooter, executive... For beginners, these terms can get confusing and run into each other, but it's much more simple when you break it all into two groups: Styles and Sizes.
Style
is how the glass
looks, and each style can encompass a large range of
sizes. For example, with the classic
Gibraltar
glasses have eight lower facets with a smooth upper rim no matter what size. Ex. Gibraltar
Shot, Gibraltar
Rocks, Gibraltar
Tall.
Gibraltar:
Eight lower facets with rounded tops, and smooth upper area.
Five lower facets that blend into smooth upper area.
"Plain" glasses with conical or cylindrical cross section.
Smaller base flares below mid-section.
The
Size
of glasses can be influenced by
usage.
For example,
Highball
glasses are intended for medium-sized traditional highballs (alcohol plus mixer) and cocktails (mixed alcohols) and come in
Gibraltar
and
Executive
sizes.
In addition to these size types there are of course specialty glassware and stemware, usually intended for
specific drinks
(i.e. Cocktail or "Martini" Glass, Wine Glass, Beer Mug). See the guide below for details.
