How Nick and Nora Drink the Manhattan, the Martini, and the Bronx Cocktail
The Thin Man is still the gold standard of cocktail elegance, a film series where witty dialogue, sharp detective work, and perfectly mixed drinks go hand in hand. Across six films, William Powell and Myrna Loy embody the ultimate cocktail-swilling couple—Nick and Nora Charles, the effortlessly sophisticated detective duo who solve crimes with equal parts wit, charm, and alcohol.
These are movies where the characters start drinking in the morning and don’t stop until the case is closed days later. And of course, they take their mixology seriously. In one unforgettable scene, William Powell instructs the bartender on the finer points of shaking:
"The important thing is the rhythm. Always have rhythm in your shaking. Now a Manhattan you always shake to fox-trot time, a Bronx to two-step time, and a Dry Martini—you always shake to waltz time."
True to 1930s cocktail culture, the authentic "Thin Man" Cocktail Glass is distinguished by a delicately curved bowl, offering the perfect balance of style and function. Faithfully re-issued using the original molds from the 1930s, this glass is designed to withstand the rigors of the hospitality industry, while being enthusiastically embraced by today’s progressive cocktail culture.
Presented in a Gift Box Set of Two "Thin Man" Cocktail Glasses, for keeping or for giving—because some things, like a well-made drink and impeccable style, never go out of fashion.
