Spiegelau Perfect Serve 12/Case 5 oz. Nick & Nora Glass

Spiegelau Perfect Serve 12/Case 5 oz. Nick & Nora Glass

The Nick & Nora glass has become the signature vessel of the modern cocktail renaissance. Named after the glamorous 1930s film characters Nick and Nora Charles famous for their sophisticated Manhattans and repartee this rounded, tulip-shaped coupe is the choice of today's most acclaimed cocktail bars for the simple reason that it makes spirit-forward drinks taste better. Unlike the flat coupe, whose wide bowl allows aromatics to dissipate rapidly, the Nick & Nora's slightly inward-curved rim captures and concentrates delicate aromas, directing them toward the nose with each sip. At 5 oz., it is ideally proportioned for a properly diluted 4–4.5 oz. cocktail a Martini, a Manhattan, a Last Word, a Gimlet poured up and served without ice to a guest who appreciates the art of the classic stirred or shaken cocktail.

The Spiegelau Perfect Serve Nick & Nora brings German crystal engineering to this iconic form. The glass is hand-finished to the laser-cut rim standard that Spiegelau applies across its professional range eliminating the rough or uneven edges that disrupt sipping and instead delivering a perfectly smooth, thin lip that allows the cocktail to flow onto the palate with zero interference. The lead-free crystal achieves optical clarity that turns a translucent Martini into a jewel-like visual experience, and a pinkish Clover Club or pale green Gimlet looks like a piece of wearable art. Dishwasher-safe at commercial temperatures, these hold their quality through the high-volume service cycles that busy cocktail bars require.

This glass is essential at any cocktail bar positioning itself in the premium tier. For hotel cocktail programs, members clubs, bar programs in tasting-menu restaurants, and upscale event catering where classic cocktails are part of the offering, the Nick & Nora signals craft bartending knowledge in a single visual statement. The 12/case format ensures you always have clean stock for the cocktail hour rush, and at $41.33 per glass, this is one of the best-value premium cocktail vessels on the Canadian market.
