The square glass from the Luigi Bormioli Top Class Square line is the 425ml DOF for the Old Fashioned, whisky and drinks served over a large cube. It stands 98mm tall and measures 88mm across, it is made of SON.hyx lead-free crystal and it is sold in packs of 6.
The 425ml DOF is the largest of the low glasses in the line: it holds a large cube with the drink and room for the twist. The square shape stands apart from the round tumblers on the menu.
What to serve in the square glass
Old Fashioned, Negroni over a large cube, whisky, rum and spirits served neat. The square glass gives the bar a serve guests recognise, without changing the way the team works behind the bar.
For a venue that wants to put a mark on its spirits service, this is the piece to start from: a square glass is recognised at first sight, from the bar and from the table.
DOF stands for double old fashioned, the wide, low tumbler built for a lot of ice. A large clear cube fills the base and melts slowly, so a stirred drink keeps its dilution over the time it takes to drink it.
The Luigi Bormioli Top Class Square line
Top Class Square is the new addition to the Luigi Bormioli Top Class line: the same straight, thin-walled glasses, with a square section instead of a round one. They are made of SON.hyx, the Luigi Bormioli lead-free crystal, with a laser-cut rim.
The line has four pieces: the 410ml beverage, the 425ml DOF, the 350ml rocks and the 285ml water glass. This square glass is the piece made for the Old Fashioned, whisky and drinks over a large cube. The corners catch the light and show the colour of the drink from four sides, something a round tumbler does not do.
The square base at the bar
The square base does not roll, and the glasses line up against the edge of the bar top or the tray with no gaps between them. A tray carries more glasses in the same space, and the mise en place lines up with fewer movements. The laser-cut rim is thin and even, which is what the guest feels on the lips.
When the bar is packed with guests, a row of square glasses ready on the bar top is quicker to fill than round glasses that drift apart on a wet surface.
How many glasses you need
The count is based on the drinks on the menu that use this glass. If 30 go out in an evening, with one wash cycle halfway through service, 18 to 24 glasses are enough, plus a 10% reserve for breakages. For an event, start from one glass per guest for each drink on the list.
The more you buy, the less you pay: 4 packs -5%, 6 -7%, 8 -10%, on the same item. The discount applies automatically in the basket.
The square glass and the other pieces
In the old fashioned glasses category the square glass sits next to the other pieces of the Luigi Bormioli Top Class Square line and the glasses of other lines. Home bartenders choose it to present an Old Fashioned the way the bar does, with a glass that goes into use every day.
