I love the look and the ability to warm the port in your hands, but not all the sippers are flat bottom (i.e. level) and most men and some women are afraid of breaking it in their hands. But I would still buy these again.

Your dinner guests will be so surprised as you serve them after dinner drinks in this special sipper. They will definitely ask, "where did you get these, they are so cute?" Suggestion: buy a box or two as gifts for your friends. PS They look and feel expensive but they are NOT.

By CarolVerified Purchaser from Nashville, TN on 2/12/2008
Pros:
Attractive Design, Comfortable to Hold
Cons:
A bit difficult to clean, Delicate bc handblown
Best Uses:

Describe Yourself:
Stylish
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

We enjoyed these little "sippers" at a friends' home & I couldn't wait to get some of my own! Port wine is especially delicious in them as the warmth of your hand brings out the full flavor of the beverage. The only down side came as a result of them being "handblown." Each one is a little different and sometimes the little "legs" wouldn't stand it up well on its own. [...]

Sipping port with this glass is very enjoyable, everyone loves them. It's great for a quite evening at home or when entertaining. I have also used them for liqueurs I like to slowly sip, but I love them best for Port. I handwash them because they are delicate, but worth the few extra minutes to clean. Worth every penny!!
