HISTORY COMPANY The Original New York Long Drink Classic Highball Glass, 4-Piece Set for Tall Drinks and Coolers (Gift Box Collection)
Description
A Good Reason to Bring Back Cocktail Parties The Highball is a timeless cocktail, once hailed as “the high priest of tall drinks” by Esquire magazine in 1949. A simple yet sophisticated mix—a measure of spirits topped with a carbonate like tonic or soda, finished with a garnish—the Highball embodies effortless elegance. But to be truly worthy of its name, it must be served in the proper glass. Traditionally known as the New York Long Drink glass, this tall, narrow-mouthed tumbler was designed in the 1890s to preserve carbonation and enhance the drinking experience. Its origins trace back to Manhattan’s legendary Ashland House, where bartender Patrick Gavin Duffy first introduced the Highball format to a distinguished clientele that included Mark Twain, Oscar Wilde, and J.P. Morgan. Today, the Highball is enjoying a well-deserved revival, reclaiming its place at the heart of refined cocktail culture. This sleek, cylindrical Highball glass is designed to bring the drink to perfection. Its straight, clean lines, rolled rim for sipping comfort, and solid, weighted base create an ideal balance of form and function. The most striking detail—a floating bubble suspended in the base—adds a touch of artistry, transforming every drink into an experience. Crafted for clarity and elegance, the crystal-clear glass beautifully showcases chilled cocktails and refreshing long drinks served over ice. Elevate your Gin and Tonics. Impress guests at your next gathering. Whether for entertaining at home or as a sophisticated gift, this Highball glass is an essential addition to any barware collection—proof that some traditions are well worth reviving.
