Description

The Vawe Highball Glass is the meeting point of advanced digital design, inventive production techniques and the intimate whisky ritual.

Its name is taken from the Old Scottish Dictionary word vawe, describing the motion of water in a rolling, surging fashion. Accordingly, the glass has been developed for the application of tall whisky drinks mixed with ice and soda, or simply water—mizuwari as the Japanese practice is called.

And for the occasions calling for a handcrafted cocktail, the glass features a core innovation. Inside lies an array of extruded chevrons radiating from the center, angled and engineered to provide friction for muddling soft herbs and citrus oils.

I LOVE THESE GLASSES!!

I have the Highballs, Heavy Tumbler and regular tumblers! These glasses are the definition of class and great for the gentlemen who love whiskey! I’ve had nothing but compliments, and can’t praise the crafting of the glasses any more than I have!

Great glasses

My dad will love them!

Very, very heavy glass.

I really like this glass. It’s got some serious heft to it. Definitely the heaviest glass I’ve ever had the joy to drink from.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

USE, CARE & MORE

What is a highball glass, and how does it differ from other whisky glasses?

A highball glass is a tall glass typically used for whisky-based mixed drinks, allowing room for ice and mixers like soda or tonic. Unlike a rocks glass, which is short and wide for sipping whisky with ice, or a nosing glass, which focuses aromas for whisky tasting, a highball glass is designed to maintain carbonation and balance dilution for refreshing, long drinks.

What is a mizuwari cocktail?

A Japanese Mizuwari is a whisky-based cocktail that blends whisky with cold still or sparkling water, typically in a 2:1 or 3:1 ratio, served over ice in a highball glass. The name mizuwari translates to "water split," reflecting the Japanese tradition of diluting spirits to enhance their flavors and aromas.

This method, often enjoyed with Japanese whisky, results in a smooth, mellow drink that complements food without overpowering the palate. It's also great to enjoy on a hot summer day.

What cocktails can I serve in a highball glass?

Highball glasses are perfect for tall cocktails like the Whisky Highball, Gin & Tonic, Moscow Mule, Cuba Libre, and Tequila Sunrise, which typically combine a base spirit with a larger proportion of a non-alcoholic mixer over ice.

They’re also great for classic favorites like the Tom Collins, Dark ‘n’ Stormy, and Paloma, which benefit from the glass’s tall shape to maintain carbonation and a balanced dilution.

Is the highball glass dishwasher safe?

We recommend you always hand wash and dry your glasses with a non-abrasive cloth to ensure their longevity.

Can the highball glass be stored in the freezer?

While pre-chilling a tumbler in advance of making a cocktail is a common practice, this is not generally done with highball glasses.

We do not recommend storing the highball in the freezer for any extended period of time. We also do not recommend ever subjecting the glass to thermal shock, such as by adding copious amounts of ice directly to a recently washed highball that may hold residual heat.

How is the glass packaged?

The Vawe Highball Glass is packaged in an elegant black corrugated box with a printed outer sleeve.
