Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Gilded Grape, a cosy wine bar in Harrogate, wanted to upgrade their glassware to better showcase their extensive sherry and port selection, moving away from generic, clunky glasses.
"Our regulars noticed the difference straight away. The glasses feel incredible in your hand and make a £7 glass of sherry feel like a £15 experience. They just sparkle under the bar lights."
Marcus Bellamy – Owner
Since introducing the new Chef & Sommelier glasses, the bar has reported a 15% increase in fortified wine sales, attributing it to the enhanced presentation and premium feel.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Always wash glasses before their first use to remove any factory dust or residue.
- Designate a specific, safe storage area—ideally a hanging glass rack or a lined shelf with adequate space.
- Brief your team on the quality of the new glassware to encourage careful and respectful handling.
Keeping It Going
- For best results, use a glass-specific rack in your commercial dishwasher to prevent chipping.
- A high-quality rinse aid is your best friend for preventing water spots and ensuring a sparkling finish.
- Polish with a clean, dry microfibre or linen cloth before service for that perfect, streak-free shine.
- Regularly check for tiny chips or cracks, especially around the rim, and remove any damaged glasses from service immediately.
