I feel elegant and refined using these Spirits glasses. They have a beautiful curve to their shape that makes any liquid inside instantly high class. Unlike stem wear, they fit perfectly in my dishwasher for easy washing and I don't have to worry about them falling over in there and breaking. These glasses have made a fun addition to my kitchen. When the kids go to bed, by husband and I break out these Spirits and are transported to a place of chic elegance.
