Title: Great glasses for whiskey. Lead free!
Review: These are ideal for whiskey. Beautiful and functional. About the same size/shape as a Glencairn glass, but better quality and I prefer the stem. (Riedel also makes an Akvavit glass, which is even closer to the Glencairn in shape, but it's hard come by). Unfortunately, they don't make anything like this glass in the hand-made Sommelier line. These are a bit heavier than the hand-built glasses, so are more durable, which might be a good thing if you're not super careful with your glasses. Also, these are LEAD FREE. I mention that because a lot of people seem to ask the question. The entire Riedel line from 2016 on is lead free, but there is still some older stock out there. The sticker on the glass says "crystal glass" which is their way of saying "no lead."Finally, these go through the dishwasher just fine, though you want to be careful that they don't bang up against anything, and you don't want to use too much soap. The dishwasher soap will probably etch the glass eventually if you wash them a lot. Riedel actually recommends a dishwasher over hand washing because it's actually much easier to break the glass when hand washing than in a dishwasher. I can attest to that from experience. I've never had one break in the dishwasher, but I've broken a couple of them when hand washing.

Title: Beautiful quality glasses
Review: Riedel does it again. Even though after a lot of expensive experimenting, I exclusively use Riedel Vinum wine glasses, I held out buying their cognac glasses. I wish I had bought these sooner. They are stable, elegant and beautifully designed. The shape enhances the developing nose (aroma) of the cognac and feels wonderful in your hand. I think they are a perfect gift for cognac drinkers too.

Title: Great glasses at a good price.
Review: We have used these Riedel glasses for everything. We break them and add a new one. They look good on the table and they are not overly fragile. We have used them for iced tea and water, red and white wine, and cocktails Good value and interchangeable. Hope they will always be in stock.

Title: Bought as a gift
Review: My dad had thrifted one of these a while back and loved it. He knocked it over with his blanket on the couch recently. So bought these as a replacement gift for his birthday and he loves them still. Nice thin lip. Study base.

Title: nice size, but not as sturdy as hoped
Review: These are a great size for everyday wine glasses. They are fine in the dishwasher and also clean up easily by hand. Although they've held up pretty well over the several years we've had them, one of them occasionally breaks when hand washing.

Review: Comme toujours, les verres de cette marque allemande sont d'une qualité parfaite. Ils sont toutefois assez fragiles car très fins mais c'est une des caractériques d'un verre haut de gamme.L'emballage pour le transport était parfait.Le seul reproche est qu'ils sont un peu grands. J'ai même pu lire un commentaire d'un client Amazon des Etats-Unis qui le mentionne. C'est dire...
