Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Copper Still, a popular whisky bar in central Manchester, was looking to replace its tired, standard tumblers. They needed something that reflected the quality of their extensive whisky menu but could also withstand a busy Saturday night.
"The Olympia Arno glasses were an immediate hit. Customers commented on the quality feel, and the team loves how durable they are. They come out of the glass-washer sparkling every time, and we've seen far fewer chips and breakages than with our old set. A simple change that made a big difference."
Robert Finch – General Manager
The bar reduced its monthly glassware replacement costs by over 30% while improving customer perception.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Upon delivery, carefully unpack and inspect each glass for any damage that may have occurred in transit.
- Before the first use, run the glasses through a full cycle in your commercial glasswasher.
- Ensure your dishwasher's rinse aid and salt levels are topped up to guarantee a sparkling, streak-free finish.
- Designate a specific, safe storage area, ideally on non-slip matting, to minimise accidental knocks.
Keeping It Going
- Always use a purpose-built glass rack to load the tumblers into the dishwasher to prevent chipping.
- Regularly check the rims for any small chips or cracks; remove any damaged glasses from service immediately.
- If you notice cloudiness over time, your glasswasher may need a descaling cycle to remove limescale buildup.
- For an extra special shine before service, polish each glass with a clean, dry microfibre cloth.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are these glasses made from real crystal?
A: Yes, they are made from high-quality crystal glass, which provides their signature weight and brilliant clarity.
Q: How many glasses are in one pack?
A: These are sold in a box of 6, making them great for stocking up a new bar or replacing existing glassware.
Q: Are the Olympia Arno tumblers stackable?
A: Due to their straight-sided design, they are not designed to be stacked, as this can lead to pressure marks or chipping.
Q: What does 'not CE marked' mean?
A: It means the glass is not government-stamped for serving specific legal measures like 125ml or 175ml of wine. It is perfectly fine for unmeasured drinks like spirits, cocktails, or water.
Q: Can I use these glasses for hot drinks like an Irish coffee?
A: No, these glasses are not designed for hot beverages. They are intended for serving cold drinks, with or without ice.
Q: What is the best way to clean them to avoid streaks?
A: For best results, use a commercial glasswasher with the correct dosage of rinse aid. If hand polishing, use a clean, dry microfibre cloth.
Q: How heavy is each glass?
A: The total weight for the box of 6 is 1.22kg, making each glass feel reassuringly solid and well-made at just over 200g.
Q: Is this glass a good size for an Old Fashioned?
A: Absolutely. The 285ml / 9.6oz capacity provides ample room for a large ice cube, the whisky, and bitters, making it an excellent choice for classic cocktails.
The Olympia Promise: Everyday Excellence
Olympia has built its reputation on creating professional-grade catering equipment that you can truly rely on, and this glassware is a perfect example of that philosophy. Going beyond the specs, the real value of the Olympia Arno collection lies in its blend of accessible style and sheer resilience. These aren't fragile, special-occasion glasses; they are workhorses engineered for the daily grind of a busy British establishment. Investing in glassware that withstands hundreds of dishwasher cycles without clouding and resists chipping from constant handling means lower long-term costs, less hassle for your team, and a consistently professional presentation for every single customer. That's the Olympia advantage: smart, dependable quality that works as hard as you do.
Explore more from OlympiaWhy a Thick Base Isn't Just for Show
You might see 'thick base' and think it's just about looks, but it's one of the most important practical features of commercial glassware. That extra weight at the bottom lowers the glass's centre of gravity, making it much more stable on a wet bar top or a busy serving tray. This significantly reduces the chance of it being knocked over, saving you money on breakages and preventing messy spills during peak hours. Think of it like the weighted keel on a boat; it keeps everything upright and stable, no matter how busy things get. It also gives the glass a premium, substantial feel that customers associate with quality.
Who Should Buy This?
- Pubs & Bars: Ideal for serving spirits on the rocks, mixers, and classic short cocktails with a premium touch.
- Restaurants & Bistros: A stylish and durable option for table water glasses or for serving after-dinner whiskies and liqueurs.
- Hotels & Lounges: The perfect, robust tumbler for lobby bars, conference facilities, or in-room minibar service.
- Cocktail Bars: A fantastic all-rounder glass for classic recipes like an Old Fashioned or a Negroni that demand quality.
