A symbol of the cocktail world and drinking culture, particularly for drinks served "on the rocks," the Double Old Fashioned tumbler has deep roots in American culture and mixology. In fact, it takes its name from the Old Fashioned, one of the first recognized and codified cocktails in history, dating back to 1806. Based on whiskey, sugar, angostura bitters, and ice, it was originally served in the eponymous (smaller) glass, but over time, the Double version became common: more space for ice and ingredients. Since then, the cocktail world has evolved, but the Double Old Fashioned tumbler has remained a timeless classic, once a symbol of refinement and virility, now something central to pop culture and the ritual of the aperitif. Americano, Negroni, Negroni Sbagliato, Milano Torino, Gin Tonic, Mojito, and various Spritzes, but also much more... Its wide shape is perfect for adding large ice cubes, maintaining the ideal temperature and unaltered flavor without diluting the drink too much!

With its roots in tradition, the Memento Originale Double Old Fashioned tumbler adapts perfectly to the most refined contexts and cocktails, but with its colors, it adds that touch of liveliness and style to the cocktail moment!

A perfect pairing with a Memento Originale Transparent Yellow Double Old Fashioned tumbler? A Blue Lagoon!

BLUE LAGOON
• Vodka, blue curaçao, lemon juice, ice, cherry for garnish.
• A lively cocktail with a brilliant blue color that contrasts beautifully with a colored tumbler, especially if the glass has complementary tones like orange or yellow.

There are many cocktails that are best served in a colored tumbler: Caipirinha, Caipiroska, Old Fashioned, Sazerac, Negroni, Boulevardier, Vieux Carré, Rusty Nail, White Russian, Midori Sour, Purple Rain, Blue Hawaii, Aviation, Rum Punch... but also Rum, Whisky on the rocks... not to mention Virgin Mojito and the whole world of more sophisticated non-alcoholic drinks; there is no limit to the imagination. All these cocktails are perfect for being served in a colorful and eye-catching Double Old Fashioned tumbler, where the reflections and robustness of the glass combined with the capacity of the tumbler enhance the sensory experience of the drink.

And what about Gin Tonic? As Churchill said, "It has saved more lives and minds than all the doctors in the Empire!"... a colored tumbler can only add an eye-catching visual element and improve the entire tasting experience! How? Colors can influence the perception of flavor and mood.
The search for the most aromatic and unique Gin, with the perfect mix of botanicals, the right tonic water to enhance the aroma, the perfect garnish... pepper, cucumber, berries, citrus, or cardamom... a true connoisseur cannot afford to make a mistake in the choice of glass.

So, make room for garnishes that enhance the color and colors that enhance the Gin! A blue glass, for example, can give a sense of freshness and refinement. The contrast between the blue of the glass and the transparency of the Gin Tonic, with the bubbles reflecting the light, creates a refreshing visual effect, particularly suitable for a summer evening. Perfect for a classic Gin, with the blue highlighting the bright green of a lime slice. A Green tumbler evokes freshness. Cucumber and other garnishes are natural elements that harmonize visually with this tumbler. Offer a natural and sophisticated contrast: pink grapefruit and a sprig of rosemary. Red fruits or Pomegranate can be used as a contrast instead, or to garnish a red or orange tumbler, for a vibrant and eye-catching look, ideal for winter parties.

A colored Double Old Fashioned tumbler can enhance the appearance of many cocktails, especially those with bright colors and layers of liquids. By choosing brightly colored cocktails, you can really make the most of the visual effect of the tumbler.

"We can thus abandon ourselves, almost a bit defenseless, and let ourselves be enveloped by the strength of color; having confirmation that, in our work, doing beautiful things and doing them well, before even being a business choice or a market strategy, is a personal necessity and a pleasure." Roberto Zani

A Memento Originale Double Old Fashioned tumbler is a way to enhance the very aesthetics of the drink, even of the most iconic and appreciated ones.
