Absolutely. While designed as an Old Fashioned glass, its versatile size and elegant silhouette make it equally suitable for serving water, cocktails, or spirits served neat.
As a single-wall glass, it does not provide active insulation. It is designed for the aesthetic experience of enjoying a drink, so we recommend using chilled glassware or large ice cubes to maintain your beverage's temperature.
