Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a glass for consuming and tasting drinks, in particular alcoholic drinks with or without carbon dioxide, for example, wine and beer.
  • This oxygen absorption enhances particular qualities of the wine such as its aromas and flavours.
  • This treatment in some cases is also intended to reduce the level of carbon dioxide, whose presence, if at an excessive level, can cause unwanted and harmful effects in alcoholic drinks.
  • the gas has properties which anaesthetise the taste buds and so cancel out the consumer's capacity for taste.
  • the above-mentioned treatment consists of predetermined pouring out techniques and, as indicated above, an operation for rotation and oscillation of the glasses during and after filling.
  • the aim of the present invention is, therefore, to overcome the above-mentioned disadvantages by providing a glass with the characteristics described in the first claim herein.
  • FIGS. 1 to 3 and 5 to 9 are perspective front views of several embodiments of the glass made in accordance with the present invention.
  • FIG. 4 is a plan view of the glass illustrated in FIG. 1 ;
  • FIGS. 10 to 13 are enlarged perspective views of four alternative embodiments of a detail of the tankards illustrated in FIGS. 1 to 9 .
  • the numeral 1 denotes generically a glass or tankard for consuming and tasting drinks such as wine and beer.
  • FIGS. 1 to 5 illustrate, respectively labelled 2 , 3 , 4 and 5 , conical column glasses with a wide opening 6 in particular used for tasting beer
  • FIGS. 6 to 9 illustrate, respectively labelled 7 , 8 , 9 and 10 , goblet-shaped glasses, that is to say having the shape of a spherical cup and with a stem 11 and a base 12 .
  • the internal surface 13 of the glasses 1 has a plurality of raised ribs 14 , evenly distributed and extending from the bottom 15 towards the opening 6 of the glasses 1 .
  • said ribs 14 are substantially parallel with one another, whilst in the glasses 3 and 4 the ribs 14 extend from the bottom 15 towards the opening 6 of the glass 1 with a helical or spiral path, respectively clockwise and anti-clockwise.
  • the ribs 14 are distributed in a first and a second set with opposite helical or spiral paths.
  • the glass 7 in FIG. 6 has, on the internal surface 13 of the respective cup, a plurality of ribs 14 extending radially from the bottom 15 towards the opening 6 .
  • the ribs 14 extend from the bottom 15 towards the opening 6 of the glass 1 with a helical or spiral path, respectively anti-clockwise and clockwise.
  • the ribs 14 are distributed in a first and a second set with opposite helical or spiral paths.
  • the ribs 14 in cross-section have a rounded shape and differing thicknesses.
  • the ribs 14 in cross-section respectively have a sharp-edged triangular shape and a polygonal shape forming two sharp edges.
  • the size of the ribs 14 is between 0.5 and 3.5 mm.
  • the consumer makes the glass perform a series of rotations so as to generate, again thanks to the ribs 14 , a turbulent movement of the beer which causes the elimination of excess carbon dioxide.
  • this rotary movement does not alter the properties of the beer and instead enhances its aromatic qualities and flavours.
  • Said oxygen absorption enhances particular qualities of the wine, such as its aromas and flavours.
  • Said oxygenation therefore allows the organoleptic attributes of the wine to be enhanced and partial elimination of the carbon dioxide contained in it, which also helps to enhance the perfumes.
