Charles Schumann is the proprietor of the legendary Schumann's Bar in Munich, and something of a philosopher of bar culture. Schumann has collaborated with German glass-maker Schott-Zweisel on a new series of stemmed cocktail glasses, ranging from the classic to sleek modern shapes. All are made of Schott-Zweisel's exclusive Tritan, titanium-reinforced glass, made to withstand 1,000 commercial dishwashing cycles. Once you have the perfect cocktail glasses, check out the
Charles Schumann cocktail recipe book (pdf download), with cocktail recipes ranging from Schumann's Gimlet to a French 75. The Schumann shaker stands 9" high.
