Krug Champagne has released the ultimate experience gift

19c6bcfa8cb2bae8b12bfbb5aa72c582Krug Champagne has released an innovative holiday package that includes a bottle of Krug Grande Cuvee, two Joseph crystal glasses by Riedel (named after Joseph Krug), and a porcelain shell that fits onto the glass rim.

The shell is used to listen to the effervescent sound of rising bubbles to highlight the proverbial sixth sense of the champagne-drinking experience: sound. Designed by Ionna Vautrin, the idea was inspired by seashells which echo the sound of the sea.
