The Bennuaine Whisky Glasses are the result of skilled human glassblowers, incomparable to mass machine production. As a result the glasses may have very slight variations, such as the following:
• Very small air bubbles can become trapped in the glass
• Hand tool marks
• Slightly asymmetrical form or variation in glass distribution
Each and every glass goes through the tightest production standards and receives stringent quality checks, but if your glass has any of these variations in extremes, we will exchange them!
Shipping
When your order ships you will receive a separate email providing you with a tracking number to track your order. Sometimes this email gets sorted into spam or promotions folders so be sure to take a look in there if it feels like you have been waiting a little too long.
You can also click the chat icon in the bottom right of our website and enter your order number.
*Please note that sometimes the tracking can take a day or two to be updated by the carrier. If it looks like its not moving, chances are its on its way!
Stemware Care
Bennuaine crystal is 100% dishwasher friendly for thousands of cycles!
That said, there are some precautions you can take to ensure they remain in tip-top shape during machine washing.
Necessary Steps
-
Use the top rack
-
Make sure there is space surrounding the glassware
Optional Steps
-
Remove from dishwasher before drying is complete and polish with microfiber cloth for the most sparkle
-
Softer, less intense, cleaning agents are ideal
With a few key pointers, it's easy to care for your glassware.
- Wash under warm water
- No detergent is necessary (unless there was something with heavy aromatics, like an Islay whisky)
- Briefly drain excess water over a towel
- OPTIONAL STEP: Steam over hot water for extra shine
- Hold the bowl in one hand - not the stem or base - and polish the bowl with the other.
- Enjoy your beautifully clean and sparkling glass!
IMPORTANT NOTE
Be careful to avoid twisting the base and the bowl while cleaning. Crystal is very durable, which is why they are so light, but extensive torsion (twisting motion) can lead to stem snapping. This is an important step to remember for cleaning any glassware with a stem!
