On the Tiki trail
GLASSWARE distributor Artis has taken its Tiki range up a notch, expanding its offer by introducing a host of new glasses and serving vessels.
The firm is responding to what it sees as growth in demand for Caribbean-inspired Tiki cocktails by adding three Tiki glasses from glassware manufacturer Libbey to be distributed on an exclusive basis through Artis, as well as a ‘Chiki Monkey Head’, a ‘Pineapple Tiki’, and an ‘Indian Head Tiki’.
The new additions bring the Artis Tiki range to more than 30 pieces, with vessels including volcanos and shrunken heads.
Artis has also responded to the gin boom, introducing two new gin goblets, the Arome and Copacabana, to its 2016 collection.
In a statement, the firm said Spanish-style large balloon-shaped stemmed glassware is a “must have” for gin.
