The Coupe Rules Again: A Toast to Timeless Glamour.
Share
Before the Martini glass became a symbol of sophistication, the coupe reigned supreme. Born in 17th-century France and reborn in the Jazz Age, it was the glass of choice for Champagne towers, candlelit ballrooms, and whispered confidences across linen-draped tables. Its shallow bowl and graceful stem were made not for excess but for elegance — designed to release a drink’s aroma in a single, indulgent breath. Holding one still feels like holding a secret from another era.
Today, the coupe has returned — not as nostalgia, but as rebellion against the oversized glass and careless pour. Modern bartenders love its balance and restraint; hosts love its cinematic grace. Whether cradling a crisp Martini or a frothy French 75, the coupe transforms every sip into a celebration. Bring back the glamour with the vintage-inspired "Algonquin Round Table" Classic Cocktail Coupe — a revival of the golden age of cocktails, crafted for the way we drink now.
