Champagne flutes have become synonymous with celebration and special occasions, but what makes them so perfect for champagne? From their shape to the materials used in their construction, there are several features that make champagne flutes ideal for enjoying champagne. Here we’ll explore why champagne flutes are made the way that they are, as well as how our new Cupoly Tritan Champagne Flutes give you a more eco-friendly option.
Eco-Friendly Materials
Materials are just as important as shape when selecting proper glassware for a beverage. Most champagne flutes are made from crystal or lead-free crystal, which enhances clarity and brilliance while adding weight and stability to the glass. Lead-free crystal is especially popular due to its ability to better retain carbon dioxide molecules, creating more intense bubbles that last longer than those created with other materials such as plastic or acrylic.
While crystal is a great option for making champagne glasses, they are not great for single-serve occasions since crystal is expensive. Our Cupoly Tritan Champagne Flutes are a great alternative when reusable glasses are not a good fit. They are made of Tritan, one of the safest plastics that you can get. Not only is it free of BPA and other chemicals, but it is strong enough so that you won't have to worry about it breaking unless you try to.
Tritan champagne flutes make great single-use items that won't hurt the environment when they are disposed of.
Shapes May Make a Difference
In addition to their aesthetic qualities, many believe that certain shapes can also enhance flavor and aroma when paired with specific types of drinks. This is especially true of champagne flutes which can capture delicate notes from grape varieties such as Chardonnay or Pinot Noir that may be lost in other types of glasses.
Furthermore, because of their tall body and narrower opening at the top, champagne flutes allow aromas to concentrate at nose level, making them easier to appreciate.
While we wanted to make a champagne flute that is eco-friendly, we also made sure that it is just as enjoyable to drink from as any other champagne flute. That's why we kept the traditional shapes that people believe enhance champagne's flavor. That way, it's no longer a choice between eco-friendly champagne flutes and other more expensive and less eco-friendly options.
Having More Champagne Flutes is Important, Too
Every special event that has champagne needs a large number of glasses. The exact number of glasses will depend on the size of the event. A good rule of thumb is to plan on 1-2 glasses per person attending, depending on how much champagne will be served and for what length of time. For a large event, you should plan on at least 4-5 glasses per person.
Choosing triton champagne glutes over crystal flutes makes it easier to have enough for every event since crystal is expensive and easily damaged. Our champagne flutes make it easy to have a large supply on hand and ready to go, especially if you serve more than you originally intended to.
