there are many but most popular once are white wine, red wine, whisky, champagne, martinis, shots, beers and some pretty cocktails glasses

Quite a few, and it depends on what type of drink you will be serving which ones you want to use.

Old Fashion (sometimes called "on-the-rocks") this is the type you'd serve anything from a Scotch Old Fashion to a Bourbon mist in.

Cocktail. The minimum size cocktail glass should hold about 4 1/2 ounces. A larger version holds about 6 ounces and is often called the Californa or double cocktail.

Highball, Collins, and Cooler; these are straight, tall, thin glasses ranging in size from 8 to 12 ounces. They are used for drinks like Gin and Tonics, Collins drinks, Cobblers, Daisies, Screwdrivers, Bloody Marys, and even beer.

Delmonico or Sour. These hold about 4 1/2 to 7 ounces and can be either footed or straight sided. Used for whiskey, rum, and brandy sours.

Liqueur, Cordial, and Pony; these 1 ounce capacity glasses may be rounded or straight sided. The later is called a pousse-cafe and can hold a rainbow's spectrum of different liquears in layers.

Whiskey shot or jigger. No modern host should buy a shot glass that holds less than 1 1/2 ounces. You use these more for measuring than drinking. It's the proper glass for a Boilermaker (Straight whiskey followed by beer)

Brandy Shifter. These glasses have a rounded bowl for retaining their liquor's rich, volatile fragrance. Glasses range in size from 2 ounces to a sensible 8 ounce sized one. But there's also styles that hold up to 25 ounces.

All-purpose wine glass. The tulip shape is designed for trapping the wine's bouquet and enables you to comfortably eye the wines color, swirl the wine, and nose it. Volumes range from 8 to 11 ounces; the glass is never more than half filled. Used for both red and white table wines as well as champagne sometimes.

Burgundy or Rhine wine glass, this is the type you'd want to serve vintage wine with, it's like a balloon shaped glass. slightly different than the all purpose one.

Port and Sherry; The port glass is a squat looking glass and the sherry glass is a Y-shaped one.

Champagne glass is a slightly narrower version of the wine glass but with a taller stem. It is never filled all the way to the top. Saucer champagne glasses allow a somewhat faster release of bubbles and are customary for use in champagne cocktails. The long throat of the hollow-stemmed champagne glass is designed to show the continuing life in bubbly, it's also used for sparkling burgundy.

Now as far as beer goes, the trumpet -shaped Pilsner glass retains cold and fizz as long as possible and is the proper glass for a Black Velvet (Guinnes stout and champange). The heavy glass stein is a perfect all around glass for beer. You also have glass tankards and sliver or pewter tankards that you can serve beer in.

I only know one, that I put coffee in it.

Standard -10- special drink glasses...
