As we’ve evolved, one thing wine glass developers have noticed is the faux pas of tipping over a glass of Sauvignon Blanc is more heart-wrenching when the glass breaks.  Everyone has to stand up and watch their feet and fingers.  The guilt is just too much to bear.  And, let’s face it.  We live in the Bible Belt with enough guilt as it is.

We are now carrying these wine glasses (brace yourself – this is impressive) made of Tritan crystal, which simply means they’re the right collection to enjoy on a daily basis.

Tritan is a world-wide patented crystal glass material and manufacturing process; it’s a 2 step process with blown Tritan crystal bowls and pressed crystal stems.

In the 1990′s, as the glass industry struggled with the environmental issues of lead and other heavy metals in crystal, the company was the first glassmaker to produce lead-free crystal glass of superb quality and brilliance. Schott Zwiesel created Tritan Crystal in 2001 by adding titanium oxide and zirconium oxide to develop The World’s Best Crystal Glass.

Tritan Crystal is 100-percent dishwasher safe-it will not etch, cloud or discolor for the life of the glass.

Despite bumps, clinks and even a few shocking knock-overs onto the granite counter-top, they survive! The glasses perform well with a range of different wines too.

If you ask me, when I’m ready for a glass of wine what I’m really telling you is I want to feel relaxed.  If I spill my glass (alcohol abuse), I don’t want to then abuse myself for misspent dollars on glasses that easily break.

It’s brunching season.  Mimosa season.  Sweet tea season.  Even “big kids” need an unbreakable glass for sipping.

Cheers, Friends!!
