The First Italian Cocktail.

A cocktail that became the Americano was first served in the 1860s at Gaspare Campari’s bar in Milan, Italy. The drink, which includes Campari and Italian vermouth in equal parts, is topped with sparkling water. The name wasn’t affixed until the Prohibition era, when Americans absconded to Europe in droves, thirsty for good drinks.

For proper service of the Americano, or for that matter, other drinks, both straight up or on the rocks, this flawlessly stylish glass is crafted in the finest Tuscan crystal, with a two-textured design that promotes a firm grip, and wraps around a thick base to create a geometric and sculptural masterpiece.
