What are folks thoughts on tiki glasses? "Too nerdly for words"? (Is that a bad thing?) "The proper accessories always make whatever it is one is trying to do"?
I guess I am really looking for input just from folks who like tiki drinks.
In theory I would like some tiki glasses. I like my whiskey/whisky is an appropriate glass. I sure like good glassware for wine. I am making a lot of tiki drinks these days and spending time reading up on the whole genre. On the other hand, when I actually look at the glasses, the fact that everything that looks traditional to me are opaque seems like a turn off, and the clear glass ones do not seem very authentic tiki to me. A lot of these drinks are good-looking with garnishes, so are nicer to be able to see. An umbrella sticking out of the top of a Maoi would not do it for me.
