Our largest mixing glass is the hand-made Gallone, a tulip-shaped mixing glass with a capacity of 1.3 liters (44 fl. Oz). That means it holds up to four drinks, perfect for making batches at a party or special event. Thick glass and a sturdy base and stem ensure that the Gallone is more durable than you’d expect, even while it maintains a delicate appearance (although it is still glass, so treat it well).
Traditionally, bartenders place the glass upon the bar and then build the drink in the glass before grasping the stem and base. They then gently rotate the glass along the bar in a circular motion to stir the drink, much the same way that one would aerate a glass of wine.
That’s an effective stirring method, but if you’d like to take full advantage of the Gallone’s eye-catching capabilities, we recommend matching it with one of our longer barspoons, possibly the
50cm Japanese-style Teardrop spoon. The best strainer for the Gallone is the
Wusthof 3600 strainer, which fits snugly atop the mouth of the glass.
