Can you be said to be an expert in fine drinks? You could find that gourmet ice is just what you’re looking for. We recommend cube ice if you’re looking for a multipurpose ice cube that works well with many different drinks. Maybe you’re on the hunt for a tooth-friendly ice; if so, chewblet ice is a great choice. But if you must use ice to keep perishables, flake ice is your best bet. If you’re having trouble deciding between the several types of ice, this blog post will break them down for you.
Gourmet Ice:
GOURMET ICE Gourmet Ice also known as the Bistrot Cube is commonly used in restaurants, cafes, cocktail bars, and fine dining establishments around the world. The unique, crystal-clear, hard, large, conical-shaped cube melts slower, slowing the dilution rate whilst creating a delicious chilled beverage.
Gourmet ice is ideal for upscale cocktail bars and restaurants and for home use when you want to impress your guests with a high-end drinking experience. Whether you’re enjoying a fine whiskey or a craft cocktail, gourmet ice ensures that your beverage stays perfectly chilled without compromising its flavor. The slow-melting properties of gourmet ice also make it an excellent choice for iced coffee and specialty iced teas, allowing you to enjoy every sip without the risk of dilution.
Cube Ice:
Cube ice is exactly what it sounds like – square or rectangular ice cubes that are often slightly larger than other types of ice. They are clear in appearance, thanks to the slow freezing process that allows impurities to be pushed out, resulting in a crystal-clear cube. The slow freezing also helps the ice to be denser and longer-lasting, giving you more chill for your drink. Suitable for restaurants, cafes, bars, convenience stores, bagging, hotels, mining sites, construction sites, workshops, and fast food chains.
Chewblet Ice:
Chewblet ice, also known as pearl or nugget ice, is a softer and more chewable form of ice compared to traditional cube ice. It is made by compressing flakes of ice into small, uniform pellets, resulting in a crunchy and easy-to-chew texture. The unique shape and texture of chewblet ice make it an ideal choice for a wide range of applications, from cocktails and soft drinks to healthcare and therapeutic uses. Its softer texture also makes it easier on your teeth, minimizing the risk of damage while still providing a satisfying crunch.
Flake Ice:
Flake ice is made up of small, flat, and thin pieces of ice that are often irregularly shaped. This type of ice is soft and pliable, making it ideal for certain applications such as food display and healthcare. Its distinctive texture allows it to conform to the shape of whatever it’s in contact with, making it perfect for packing and preserving perishable items. Suitable for fresh ice displays, supermarkets, fisheries, bakeries, delis, perishable food transport and healthcare applications.
