Expert Review and Insights
The Olympia Solar range hits that sweet spot between aesthetic appeal and practical brawn. It's a glass that feels refined in the hand but isn't so delicate you're terrified of handling it during a hectic service. For any business needing to serve a high volume of wine without compromising on presentation, this is a very smart, budget-conscious investment.
Emily Hart – Tableware Expert View Profile →
- Best of Both Worlds: It has the elegant look of a fine dining glass with robust, everyday durability.
- Not CE Marked: Staff must manually measure servings, which can slow down a busy bar service slightly.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Copper Kettle in Cardiff decided to upgrade its entire glassware collection after launching a new, more ambitious wine list. They needed something that looked premium but could handle the knocks of a busy city-centre bistro.
"We were tired of our old, clunky glasses that did nothing for our lovely wines. The Olympia Solar glasses have a great feel to them and look fantastic on the table. Our customers have noticed the difference, and so has our accountant!"
Robert Davies – General Manager
After three months, the bistro reported that glassware breakages had fallen by nearly 40%, significantly reducing replacement costs.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Always inspect glasses upon delivery for any chips or cracks that may have occurred in transit.
- Before their first use, run the glasses through a full cycle in your commercial glasswasher.
- Ensure your staff are trained to use a jigger for measured servings, as these glasses are not CE marked.
- Store glasses upright in dedicated glass racks to prevent rim damage and allow for proper air circulation.
Keeping It Going
- Use a high-quality glasswasher detergent and rinse aid to ensure a sparkling, streak-free finish.
- Regularly check for any damage and remove any chipped or cracked glasses from service immediately for safety.
- Polish with a clean, dry microfibre cloth before service to remove any water spots and boost their shine.
- Never stack glasses inside one another as this creates pressure points and can lead to breakage.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are these glasses suitable for both red and white wine?
A: Yes, absolutely. Their versatile all-rounder shape, with a generous bowl and slightly tapered rim, is designed to complement both red and white wines beautifully.
Q: What does 'not CE marked' mean for my pub?
A: It simply means the glass does not have a fill line for legal measures (like 125ml or 175ml). Your staff must use a thimble or jigger to measure the wine before pouring it into the glass.
Q: How many glasses come in one pack?
A: These are sold in a box of 24 glasses, making them a great value option for stocking your bar or restaurant.
Q: What is the full capacity of the glass?
A: The total 'brim-full' capacity is 310ml (11oz), making it perfectly sized for serving a large 250ml glass of wine with adequate space.
Q: How durable are they in a busy restaurant?
A: They are designed specifically for commercial use. The sturdy construction and stable base make them far more resilient to knocks and frequent washing than standard domestic glassware.
Q: Are they easy to clean?
A: Yes, they are fully commercial glasswasher-safe for fast and effective cleaning, ensuring a constant supply of sparkling glassware during service.
Q: How tall are these glasses?
A: They stand at 197mm high, giving them an elegant profile on the dining table without being awkwardly tall for storage or washing.
Q: Will they tip over easily?
A: They are designed with a wide, solid base specifically to improve stability and minimise the chance of them being knocked over.
The Olympia Promise: Value and Reliability for British Hospitality
Choosing Olympia glassware is about more than just the item in the box; it's a pragmatic business decision. For decades, Olympia has been a trusted partner to the UK's hospitality sector, known for producing equipment that perfectly balances cost, performance, and durability. These Solar glasses are a prime example of that philosophy. They are not designed to be pampered. They are engineered to be unboxed, washed, and put straight into a demanding service environment, day in and day out. This focus on real-world usability means a lower total cost of ownership for you—fewer breakages to replace, consistent presentation that customers appreciate, and the operational peace of mind that comes from using reliable, fit-for-purpose equipment. It's a straightforward investment in quality that supports your bottom line.
Explore more from OlympiaWhy a Wide Bowl Makes Wine Taste Better
Ever wondered why wine glasses aren't just straight-up tumblers? It's all about aroma, and the wide base of the Solar glass's bowl is a secret weapon for flavour. A wider bowl increases the surface area of the wine that's exposed to the air. This process, called aeration or simply 'letting it breathe', helps soften tannins and release the wine's complex aromatic compounds.
Think of it like opening a window in a stuffy room. The fresh air allows all the subtle scents—like fruit, oak, and spices—to escape the liquid and travel up the glass to your nose. Since so much of taste is actually smell, this simple design feature dramatically improves the flavour of both young and aged wines, making every glass you pour more enjoyable for your customers.
