The Shogun – 640ml Japanese-Style Cocktail Mixing Glass

The Shogun is a 640 ml / 21.6 oz Japanese-style cocktail mixing glass with a tall profile and vertical-cut pattern.

The approximately 9 cm wide opening gives a bar spoon comfortable room to rotate around the inside wall, while the 640 ml capacity leaves space for plenty of ice and the ingredients of one or more stirred cocktails, depending on the recipe. It is suited to Martinis, Manhattans, Negronis and other drinks where clarity, controlled dilution and proper chilling are the objective.
