Schott Zwiesel Tritan Crystal Hurricane Whisky and Cocktail Glasses, 17.9-Ounce, Set of 6

Schott Zwiesel, the renowned German manufacturer of "The Best Crystal Glassware," has been a leader in innovation, style, and technology for over a century. The company has many pioneering achievements to its credit, including the first fully automated production of glass-blown stemware.

In the 1990s, as the glass industry grappled with the environmental concerns of lead and other heavy metals in crystal, Schott Zwiesel was the first glassmaker to produce lead-free crystal glass of exceptional quality and brilliance. The company's breakthrough came in 2001 with the creation of Tritan® Crystal, which they developed by adding titanium oxide and zirconium oxide to create "The World's Best Crystal Glass."

Tritan® Crystal is 100% dishwasher safe and will not etch, cloud, or discolor over time. It is also remarkably resistant to the daily wear and tear of breakage, chipping, and scratching. Furthermore, Tritan® is thermal shock resistant, making it one of the clearest and most brilliant crystal glasses, capable of conducting, refracting, and transferring light better than any other crystal.

As an added measure of quality, Schott Zwiesel has patented a laser technology that allows them to cut all their crystal stemware and beverage ware with a smooth, thin, and elegant edge. Each detail of size, weight, and balance is carefully studied by culinary experts and manufacturing engineers to ensure that the glass delivers the wine or spirit to its maximum potential.

The BAR SPECIAL series, in particular, leaves nothing to be desired. These beautiful and functional glasses are perfect for cocktails, aperitifs, and digestifs, reflecting the latest bar trends while meeting the requirements of private connoisseurs. The collection includes a variety of special shapes and sizes to accommodate a wide range of drinks.

Tritan® crystal glass is a non-lead material made of titanium and zirconium oxide, making it resistant to breakage, chipping, scratching, and thermal shock. The glasses are also completely dishwasher safe and will not etch, cloud, or discolor over time.

Schott Zwiesel's commitment to quality, design, and functionality is evident in all of their Tritan® crystal products, including the BAR SPECIAL series.
