Description: Porrón is a traditional glass wine pitcher, typical of Spain, originating in Catalonia in place of wine-skins and eventually spreading to other parts of Spain. They were originally made from ceramic, but now are fashioned from hand-blown recycled glass. Each porrón holds 1 liter of wine. Please note, there are other creative uses, such as using it to serve sangria, cocktails, oil, or just natural juices.
Just pick up the porrón and tilt it so that a thin stream of wine pours directly into your mouth! It takes some skill, but it is fun at a party, see how well you and your friends master the technique. Makes an excellent gift for foodies.
