Wine Glass: White vs. Red
At DiscountMugs.com we are certain you have heard that there are a variety of wine glasses. We have all the information to help you decide on the right wine glass for your event. They are especially trendy and great for prom favors.
The first thing that you have to keep in mind that there are 4 chief types of wine glasses: white, red, sparkling and dessert.
There are 3 parts to a wine glass:
1) The Base: This balances out the glass so it stands upright on most surfaces
2) The Stem: This is what you use to grasp the glass
3) The Bowl: This is where the wine is held for drinking
The style and shape of the glass varies as the type of wine changes
The shapes of wine glasses are formed to oxidize the wine in different ways so that it brings out better aromas and taste.
Red Wine glasses have a more round shape with a wide open surface to allow for the smell of aromas of this lush and rich type of wine to really seep through your senses.
2 main types of Red Wine glasses are Bordeaux glass and Burgundy glass.
Bordeaux glass is taller than and not as huge as the Burgundy glass. Burgundy glasses are for lighter red wines such as Pinot Noir. Burgundy bowls tend to be larger because it needs more oxygen to release into the wine for complete and full taste effects.
Then there are the 2 main types of white wine glasses.
The bowl of white wine glasses has a shape that kind of shapes like a standing letter “U”. The shape allows for cooler wine temperatures which decreases nucleation and increases taste and texture. There are also 2 types of white wine glasses for young and older wines.
The young and light white wines have larger bowls for sweeter taste that titillates the tongue. For a more robust bold taste there are the tall bowl wine glasses which allows for all the fruit taste to sprinkle your tongue with delightfulness.
Whatever the occasion or event our wine glasses at DiscountMugs.com are sure to please. Why not try them as prom favors? You can fill them to the brim with candy and personalize them to keep that special in your memory.

Custom Glassware for Bars and Restaurants
The service industry has taken a really big hit from the recession, but those establishments that remain find themselves in a position to really set a firm hold in their location. Though many establishments have folded, competition is still fierce in the service industry as new establishments are taking advantage of low lease rates on commercial property. New and existing bar and restaurants need an edge on the competition and that is why they should get custom glassware items. Customizable glassware items allow establishments like bars and restaurants to serve drinks in glasses that have custom printed logos on them. This adds legitimacy to your business and gives you the option of selling these glasses to avid customers.
Restaurants and bars require different kinds of drinkware items. Restaurants typically need drinking glasses, wine glasses and coffee mugs depending on what’s available on their menu. Bars require drinking glasses, beer mugs, pint glasses, cocktail glasses and much more depending on what types of drinks they serve. Customizing these items can really help when it comes to customer retention rates and customer satisfaction. Every restaurant and bar is also a brand with a logo, these custom glasses promote that brand and help get the word out about an establishment.
Restaurants and bars, especially those in the tourist industry, can gain huge profits from selling their glassware items. Selling custom items also serves as a promotional venture because it creates brand promotion and allows others to see your company logo outside of its location. Offer these custom items to customers at their table or by setting up a shop in a high traffic location in the bar or restaurant. Custom glassware items can also be offered as part of specials or deals (example: The daily special comes with a free custom drinking glass).
The legitimacy custom glassware items bring to a restaurant or bar cannot be understated.

Types of Glassware Needed for Bar or Restaurant
Read more..So you always wanted to open up a bar or restaurant but had no idea you would need so much stuff. We at DiscountMugs can’t help you out with your furnishing or interior design but we certainly can help you find the right glassware items. Obviously the type of glassware you choose will depend largely on the establishment you decide to use them in. If you’re opening up a bar, there are standard glassware items you’ll need and more niche types of glassware you’ll want to impress your patrons. If you’re opening up a restaurant the glassware items you’ll use will depend on the type of drinks you’ll be serving. You can also choose to get these items customized with your restaurant or bar logo on them or get the glassware blank for a more subtle approach.
Bar ownership is a colorful and fun endeavor, but getting all the personalized glassware items can be hectic so be sure to get the right type and quantity of glassware items. First of all, you’re going to want get standard drinking glasses to give your patrons the option of drinking non-alcoholic beverages. Drinking glasses range in size but the average glass should be around twelve-to-fifteen-ounces. Next you’ll want to get the always classic conical pint glasses; the standard pint is sixteen fluid ouches so be sure to get a sixteen ounce glass if you’re going to be serving it as an official “pint glass”. A pint glass can be used to serve many different types of beer but is best served with Ales and darker beers.
The next type of glass you’ll want to get for your bar is the Pilsner Glass; this glass is long and slender and ranges in size. The Pilsner glass is used to serve Pilsner beer which is a pale lager that continues to grow in popularity in the United States. Many avid beer drinkers prefer to drink Pilsner beer in a Pilsner Glass, so having them available is a good way to impress your clientele. In terms of liquor glasses, most bars have cocktail glasses and shot glasses available for customers as well. While many bars stop at several different types of glasses, other glasses that can be used to further impress your customers like beer steins, wheat beer glasses, yard glasses, beer boot glasses and stemware.
Restaurants are not that different when it comes to glassware items, but depending on the restaurant, you’ll want to focus more on the stemware and cocktail glasses than the beer and shot glasses. Stemware items vary in style but include categories like wine glasses, brandy snifters, champagne flutes and goblets. Make sure you have both white and red wine glasses as wine drinkers are particular about their glassware. Also if you’re serving brandy, be sure to have brandy snifters as they are very distinct glasses that add a high level of formality and class to your establishment. The cocktail glass also has a very distinct shape and is used to serve popular drinks like martinis, daiquiris and margaritas. Restaurants must also supply standard glassware items like drinking glasses for non-alcoholic beverages like soda, juice and water.
