Wonderful straw, hope there are more, will order again
I got these straws today, and am very pleased with them. The glass is thicker than I expected, very strong feeling, and easy to clean with my sippy straw cleaning brush. I’m glad I got the smaller ones, the 9mm, as they are perfect for my tea and as large as I would ever want.
I previously bought some stainless steel straws, and wasn’t happy with them because they made my front teeth cold (one of the reasons I use straws, along with avoiding stains on the front teeth) and had nickle in them. I’m allergic to nickle and can’t wear less expensive jewelry because of a rash that I get. I was getting soreness on my mouth from the metal straws.
These, on the other hand, are far better. My teeth aren’t cold (and probably won’t be hot when I switch to hot tea for the winter), and there is no allergic reaction. They don’t change the flavor of the liquid, which the metal ones did.
I’m just hoping that there will be more available soon. I plan to order again when…
Icing on the cake.
I’m all about drinking from the side of the glass, but my wife loves straws. I find one in every drink she pours or makes – even water! Bought her a glass mug to take to work and thought to buy this to match when she goes for cold drinks. She loves it!
The 9.5mm size is quite sizeable, wider than your average fast-food straw, and somewhat less than a tapioca (boba) drink straw. No problems with the durability of it so far. well-sized for your average glass or tall mug. Use pipe cleaners or something similar to clean it. I didn’t think I could class someone into the group “straw lovers” but upon reflection that’s an accurate description for my wife. If you or your loved one is a straw lover too, this makes a great gift.
Great Straw; Fantastic Company
I bought a couple of these straws a few months ago and couldn’t be happier. Everything just seems to taste better with them. I think that liquids in general taste better out of glass than with plastic or metal, but plastic is the worst. Glass Dharma- the company that makes these straws also does custom orders for people who want a specific sized straw. I have a stainless steel sports drink container that I use to drink water from my desk at the office, but it came with a yucky plastic straw. The glass straws I already had didn’t fit this sports bottle right so I contacted glass dharma to see if they could make me a glass straw that fit my container. The owner- David said that they could do it, but to be sure that I should first send them my sports bottle. In the end it turned out that he didn’t recommend a glass straw for this particular bottle so he just sent me back the bottle and they paid for the shipping back to me. It’s nice that they were honest about how good their…
