SWANK MARTINI GLASSES and THE HOLLYWOOD SET

By Michael Hepworth

The Martini boom continues unabated, and a collection of martini glasses from the Swank Martini Company will surely give your home bar the added touch of class to go along with the Grey Goose, Ciroc or Herradura in the cabinet. The sample pack of 12 entirely different glasses has been carefully selected, after the owners of the company scoured bars around the world to come up with really unique designs, shapes and sizes.  They look at new designs all the time from people who actually create these mini works of art. There are other packages available, and the glasses are also for sale individually.  This is actually a good idea for a small party, because each guest will hopefully know exactly which glass is theirs after they have consumed half dozen cocktails or more.  Some of the individual names of the glasses include Swinger, Metro, Omega, Satin Breeze, Swerve, Parisian, Vibe, Chillin, A Twist, The Diva, Cosmo and Flirtini.

Hardly surprisingly, the Hollywood set has caught on to these glasses. The obvious high profile celebrities or usual suspects are all allegedly owners of these slick looking glasses, an obvious fit for these modern day icons of the silver screen, in order for them to stay hip and cool in the eyes of the public. In case you were wondering, Mel Gibson was not one of the stars listed.  You would think that a company specializing in promoting the good times that can be had from drinking would be based in Miami , New York or Beverly Hills . Swank are located in Toledo of all places, but since they sell exclusively on line, location is becoming less and less a factor these days. Their web site is pretty interesting actually, giving you a really good picture of the glasses in their extensive catalog. They also include a humungous list of martini recipes, and it will take you a year literally to try every one.
