Review on Clear Shot Glass - True Classic Design in One Size by Kory Shelton

Revainrating 4 out of 5

A little headroom, the top is too rounded to pour properly

This shot glass is very heavy due to the thick glass which I need. However, the glass I was replacing, which broke after decades of use, had about twice the headroom of that glass. By headroom I mean 1 1/2 ounces from the top. line up to the overturned top of the glass itself. If you're not careful (e.g. make a second or third shot of Margaritas, Black Russians, Rusty Nails or whatever) you could overfill that shot and waste some really good alcohol. Unfortunately, all shot glasses today seem to have the problem of a little headroom. Also, the top rim of the shot glass is too rounded to be able to carefully pour it into the glass or shaker in which you are preparing the drink. I've found that before tipping the shot glass, I need to make sure the entire shot glass is over the inside of the drinking glass or shaker. I bought the shot glass from a different seller (a different Revain site, a different seller) and I received the exact same shot glass which has the exact same issues.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Poor instructions
