Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Queen's Head pub in Canterbury, Kent, was struggling with constant glassware breakages from their thinner, more fragile tumblers, especially during peak tourist season. They needed a more robust solution that didn't compromise on style.
"We were practically throwing money away replacing broken glasses every single weekend. Switching to these Olympia GG923 whiskey glasses has made a huge difference. They feel substantial, look professional, and our team isn't afraid of handling them during a rush. It’s a simple upgrade that has really paid off."
Samuel Jones – Pub Landlord
The switch resulted in a reported 60% drop in glassware replacement costs within the first two months, significantly improving their bottom line.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Upon delivery, carefully unpack and inspect each glass for any chips or cracks that may have occurred in transit.
- Always run a full wash cycle in your commercial glasswasher before the first use to ensure they are perfectly clean and ready for service.
- Check that your glasswasher's rinse aid and detergent levels are topped up to guarantee a sparkling, streak-free finish.
- Store glasses on non-slip shelf lining to protect the rims and bases from accidental chips.
Keeping It Going
- Load into glasswasher racks carefully, ensuring the rims don't knock against each other.
- Before each service, give glasses a quick visual check for any damage. Remove any chipped or cracked glasses from service immediately.
- For a premium finish, polish with a clean, dry microfibre cloth to remove any water spots.
- Avoid using abrasive scouring pads or harsh chemicals, as this can scratch the glass over time.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does 'rocks tumbler' mean?
A: It refers to a short, wide tumbler with a solid base, traditionally used for serving spirits 'on the rocks' (with ice).
Q: Are these 285ml whiskey glasses suitable for cocktails?
A: Absolutely. They are the perfect size for short, stirred cocktails like a Negroni, Old Fashioned, or a Sazerac.
Q: Is the glass material durable?
A: Yes, these are made from commercial-grade glass designed to be more robust and chip-resistant than standard domestic glassware.
Q: Can I use these glasses for hot drinks like coffee or tea?
A: No, these glasses are not made from toughened or borosilicate glass and are not designed to handle the thermal shock of hot liquids.
Q: How many glasses are in one pack?
A: These are supplied in a box of 48, offering excellent value and convenience for stocking your bar.
Q: Are they stackable?
A: They are not designed to be stacked internally as this can cause chipping or scratching. However, their uniform shape allows for neat and space-efficient storage side-by-side.
Q: What does 'Not CE Marked' mean?
A: It means the glass does not have a line to indicate a legal measure (like a pint or half-pint). They are for serving unmeasured drinks like spirits with mixers, water, or soft drinks.
Q: What is the main benefit of the thick base?
A: The thick base provides excellent stability to prevent the glass from being easily knocked over, and it also adds a feeling of quality and substance in the hand.

Explore more from OlympiaMore Than Just a Pretty Base: Why a Thick Bottom Matters
Ever wondered why a good rocks glass has that chunky, heavy bottom? It’s not just for show; it’s clever, practical design. A thick base gives the glass a much lower centre of gravity. Think about it like the difference between a racing car, which is low and stable, and a top-heavy van that sways more easily. That low centre of gravity makes the tumbler far less likely to be knocked over on a busy, wet bar top or a slightly wobbly table. For you, this means fewer spills to clean up, less wasted stock, and a reduced risk of breakages during a hectic service. It's a simple feature that provides real-world peace of mind.
