Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

'The Salty Dog', a bustling seaside pub in Brighton, needed to replace its mismatched and  frequently chipped glassware. They chose the Olympia GM572 tumblers for their uniform look and  reputation for durability.

"We were getting through our old glasses at an alarming rate. Since switching to these Olympia old fashioned glasses, our breakage costs have plummeted. They feel substantial, our customers like them, and  they look smart on the bar."

Ben Carter – General Manager

The pub reported a 30% reduction in glassware replacement orders within the first six months of use.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Before first use, always check each glass for any signs of damage that may have occurred in transit.
  • Run the full box through a hot cycle in your glasswasher to ensure they are sterile and  pristine.
  • Check that your glasswasher's rinse aid and  detergent levels are topped up for a sparkling, streak-free finish.
  • Store them on non-slip shelf liners to allow air circulation for drying and  to prevent the bases from chipping.

Keeping It Going

  • Avoid stacking glasses directly inside one another, as this creates pressure points and  can cause them to crack or get stuck.
  • Use a microfibre cloth to polish away any water spots for a crystal-clear presentation every time.
  • Regularly inspect rims and  bases for small chips or 'chatter' and  remove any damaged items from service immediately.
  • To avoid thermal shock, never pour ice-cold liquids into a glass straight from a hot wash cycle.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Glassware

Not sure what fits best on your bar? Making the right choice is simple when you know what to look for. Here are a few tips to guide you.

Check the Capacity

Ensure the glass volume (in this case, 268ml) matches your standard pour sizes for spirits and  cocktails to maintain consistency and  control costs.

Prioritise Durability

In a commercial setting, look for features like toughened or rolled rims, which significantly reduce the likelihood of chipping and  extend the product's life.

Match Style to Venue

A timeless design like these conical cocktail glasses Olympia offers incredible versatility, fitting in everywhere from a modern hotel bar to a traditional pub.

Think About Storage

Consider your back-of-house space. While brilliantly durable, these glasses aren't designed to be stacked, so ensure you have adequate shelf space.

Confirm Washability

Always choose glassware that is certified as commercial glasswasher safe. This is essential for maintaining hygiene standards and  ensuring fast turnaround.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Are these glasses a good size for whisky?

A: Yes, they are perfect. These 268ml whisky tumblers are ideal for serving whisky neat, on the rocks, or as a base for classic whisky cocktails.

Q: What does it mean that the rim is 'rolled'?

A: A rolled rim is slightly thicker and  rounded, a design feature that adds strength to the most vulnerable part of the glass to help prevent chipping.

Q: Can I stack these to save space?

A: We strongly advise against stacking these glasses inside each other. The conical shape means they can get stuck or crack under the pressure.

Q: Is the glass completely clear or does it have a tint?

A: The glass is completely clear, with no tint, ensuring the true colour of your beverages is showcased beautifully.

Q: How heavy do they feel in the hand?

A: They have a reassuring weight thanks to the solid base, making them feel sturdy and  high-quality without being too heavy for customers.

Q: Are they suitable for serving hot drinks like coffee or tea?

A: No, these glasses are designed for cold beverages. Sudden, extreme temperature changes can cause the glass to break (thermal shock).

Q: Is the base wide enough to be stable?

A: Absolutely. The heavy, wide base is specifically designed for stability on bar tops and  tables, minimising the risk of being knocked over.

Q: How many glasses come in one pack?

A: These Olympia GM572 tumblers are sold in a box of 12, offering great value for stocking your establishment.

Think of it like a perfectly shaped handle on a tool – it’s designed for use. This small detail not only reduces the chance of drops but also subtly enhances the customer's drinking experience, making it feel more considered and  comfortable. It’s a design that works with you, not against you.
