Compare the Au Double Wall Bottle Glass and Au Frosted Shot Glass on capacity, insulation, and care to choose the right vodka serving glassware for your pour.
Quick answer
Choose the Au Double Wall Bottle Glass for relaxed sipping and longer drinks, and the Au Frosted Shot Glass for quick, freezer-chilled 50ml shots. The bottle glass trades shot-sized precision for a larger, insulated pour, while the shot glass trades volume for fast, frosty serving.
Insulation and temperature: two different chilling jobs
Both glasses use a double wall design, but they chill in different ways. The Au Double Wall Bottle Glass is built to keep drinks cool while you sip, so it suits a measured pour you plan to linger over. The Au Frosted Shot Glass is designed to be placed in the freezer for two hours before pouring, so the glass itself arrives at the table already frosted and ready for a silky smooth shot.
That difference matters for vodka serving glassware: the bottle glass manages temperature during the drink, while the frosted shot glass front-loads the chill before the pour. Neither approach is better in every case; they simply match different drinking speeds.
Capacity and pour style: 50ml versus a full bottle-glass serve
The Au Frosted Shot Glass lists a 50ml capacity, which gives you a consistent single-shot measure. The Au Double Wall Bottle Glass does not list a capacity in the supplied catalog facts, so treat it as a larger sipping vessel rather than a measured shot glass. If you need repeatable pour sizes, the shot glass is the clearer choice; if you want a generous serve over ice or a longer mixed drink, the bottle glass is the more natural fit.
Care and delivery limits before you commit
The Au Double Wall Bottle Glass is not dishwasher safe, so plan to hand wash it to protect the double wall. The Au Frosted Shot Glass has an extra thick glass build and a signature gold rim, but the supplied facts do not state dishwasher suitability, so hand washing is the safer default. Both products are listed as UK delivery only, which is a practical constraint if you are ordering from outside the UK.
Trade-offs at a glance
- Chilling method: The bottle glass keeps drinks cool through its double wall during use; the frosted shot glass is pre-chilled in the freezer for two hours before pouring. If you cannot plan two hours ahead, the bottle glass is the more forgiving option.
- Capacity and measure: The frosted shot glass holds 50ml, giving a defined shot; the bottle glass has no listed capacity, so it suits a free-pour sipping serve. For repeatable measures, choose the shot glass; for a longer drink, choose the bottle glass.
- Care and handling: The bottle glass is explicitly not dishwasher safe; the shot glass has extra thick glass and a gold rim but no stated dishwasher guidance. Hand wash both to protect the double wall and the gold rim.
