Collection: Brandy Glasses

Brandy Glasses at Glassware UK

A brandy glass, or snifter, has a short stem and a wide, rounded bowl that you cradle in your hand to gently warm the spirit and release its aromas. Perfect for brandy, cognac, armagnac and aged rum.

Shop the large 550ml brandy balloon, cut-crystal Flamenco and Claudia brandy glasses and Luigi Bormioli designs, singly or in sets of 6. Serve from one of our spirit decanters or browse whisky glasses.

How to choose brandy glasses

The large 550ml brandy balloon is the classic after-dinner choice. For a more decorative glass, the cut-crystal Flamenco and Claudia brandy glasses add sparkle, while Luigi Bormioli brandy glasses offer Italian crystal clarity at a great price. Pour just 25ml to 50ml so there's plenty of room for the aroma.

Frequently asked questions

Why do brandy glasses have a short stem?

The short stem lets you cup the bowl in your hand, which gently warms the brandy and releases its aroma.

Can I drink whisky from a brandy glass?

Yes. A snifter works well for nosing whisky and other aged spirits. For everyday whisky, see our whisky glasses.

Are brandy glasses dishwasher safe?

Many of our brandy glasses are dishwasher safe, and the care details are listed on each product page. For crystal, cut, gold-rimmed or decorated pieces we recommend hand washing in warm, soapy water.

Can brandy glasses be personalised?

Many of our brandy glasses can be personalised with engraving – look for the personalisation option on the product page. Personalised orders are usually turned around in 1–4 working days depending on the option you choose, and same-day turnaround is available.
