THE TEMPLES OF THE COCKTAIL MARTINI

 

 

 

Castelfalfi Resort

 

 

This is the glass that the bartender of the Ecru, the bar of the Castelfalfi Resort (pretending to be a 5-stars resort...) wants his customers to tolerate when one orders a very dry Martini cocktail. This is something I don't tolerate: Martinis have to be served in a proper conical stem glass as a symbol of its own existence, any other glass makles of this cocktail a plebeian glass of gin. This one being so wide and flat is ugly and the cocktail gets warm in a few seconds....

Hearing a German bartender say that 'this is the glass because I've decided it' rings some unpleasant bells; but of course, nobody expects all the Germans to have the sense of style and tradition that we recognize in Goethe, Schiller, Hugo Boss and other great guys coming from the Vaterland
