Sommelier Kristel recommends Öun gift boxes with Riedel crystal glasses.

Kristel Niit has been a sommelier for ten years. We asked her how she rates our non-alcoholic celebration drinks and how highly valued are Riedel glassware in the world.

At the beginning of December, we introduced Öun's first gift boxes to our customers. We wanted to offer our clients an exclusive experience to drink sparkling drinks from a high-quality champagne glass. Riedel crystal glasses were a preference because the company has a long history of making the most exclusive and valuable wine glasses in the world.

She adds that the glasses are also highly valued in the restaurant sector.

The Riedel champagne glass has the perfect egg-shaped form to enjoy its aromas. The glass also has a 'sparkling point' to aid the formation of the drink's bubbles. Nowadays, sommeliers prefer glasses of this shape to enjoy a sparkling drink rather than flute-shaped glass.

See what Kristel thinks of our celebration drinks and what kind of food pairs nicely with them.

After the first taste, Kristel told us she completely understands why the Rhubarb-Spruce celebration drink got selected as the Best Organic Drink of 2020. The color of the beverage is a lovely shade of pink and gold, and the bubbles are small and straight. You can feel the scent of rhubarb instantly. The flavor of spruce and rhubarb is recognizable.

She recommends the celebration drink would go nicely with red meat and probably also with tartare or carpaccio.

There is no age limit for sparkling drinks. Also perfect for younger connoisseurs and those looking for new and inventive flavours.

Apple-Juniper is a sparkling drink with a nice bubble and an unmistakably fruity aroma, with a taste that perfectly blends with juniper berries and thorns of ethereal flavours. You can also feel the freshness and sweetness of apple juice in the background. The aftertaste is juicy and with semi-dry notes.

It will go well with a salad, light meat or oriental dishes. Pleasant to set up next to an apple pie or a cheese platter.
