Ferrari Reinvents it’s Red-headed Icon

One of the most revered names from Maranello’s stables makes a triumphant return: Testarossa. Growing up, we all had it as a glossy poster adorning our walls, it had a character and appeal that captured the imagination of a generation.

Sip in Style: The Gentleman’s Fieldguide to Choosing the Right Gin Glass Gin is more than just a spirit—it’s an experience. Every drink you prepare tells a story and every sip an important chapter. And here’s the plot twist: the glass you choose isn’t just a vessel; it’s a co-star in this botanical drama. Pick the wrong one, and you might as well be drinking from a shoe, though we don’t recommend testing that theory. So, let’s talk glassware—because life’s too short for mediocre gin moments. Whether you like your Gin neat, with Tonic water or shaken not stirred with complimentary spirits, the right glass doesn’t just hold your drink—it elevates it. The Rocks Glass Also known as the Old Fashioned glass, this sturdy little hero is for those who like their Gin uncomplicated. If your idea of bliss is a sipping you Gin neat or maybe on the rocks with a twist (or maybe a splash of bitters), this is your go-to. Why it works: -The medium is the message. And the message is simplicity: A simple glass for Gin by itself or Gin with a few accomplices and some ice. Best for: Gin neat or classic Gin cocktails like the Negroni, Gimlet, or a simple Gin-and-Bitters. The Copa Glass If you like longer Gin drinks like a classic G&T a classic highball is more than sufficient. But the large bowl and long stem of the Copa de Balon or Gin Balloon takes this classic cocktail up several notches. Why it works: - Big Bowl = Big Aromas – The wide bowl traps the gin’s botanicals and lets the tonic’s effervescence dance upward, hitting your nose like a fragrant fireworks display. - Plenty of Ice Real Estate – More space means slower dilution, keeping your drink crisp and cold. Plus handling your glass from the long stem keeps the warmth of your hand from warming your drink. - Drama Factor – Let’s be honest, a G&T in a Copa looks like it belongs on a yacht. Even if you’re drinking it in sweatpants. Best for: Gin-and-tonics (obviously), but also floral gins that benefit from a little aromatic breathing room. The Martini Glass The Martini glass is the James Bond of glassware—sleek, stylish, and just a little bit dangerous (urbane handling is a must if you want to keep spills to a minimum). Why it works: - Elegant Sips – The wide, shallow bowl ensures each sip hits your palate just right, balancing gin’s botanicals with vermouth’s herbal kiss. - The Stem Stays Cool – No warm hands messing with your drink’s temperature. - Instant Class – Holding one makes you feel like you should be wearing a tuxedo or a little black dress. Best for: Martinis, no prizes for guessing that one but also other gin cocktails like the Aviation or a Corpse Reviver No. 2. Final Thought: Glass Matters But… Gin is a spirit of nuance—each variety has its own personality, and the right crystal lets it shine so select your Gin just as wisely. Whether you enjoy it Neat, with ice or as the star of endless Gin cocktails. Choose well, gents and Cheers to better sipping!
