If you are referring to the drinking glass also known as a brandy snifter, this is a short-stemmed glass (a wine glass is long-stemmed) with a wide bowl but narrow top, kind of like a teardrop with the point cut off. This shape temporarily traps the aromas in the glass, allowing the drinker to sniff the brandy, cognac, or Kool-Aid. Hence, the name "snifter."

Because cognac is brandy the more common of the two is a brandy snifter. This is a squat glass with no stem to speak of with a reasonable base attach to a bowl that is very wide and flat at the bottom, rising and narrowing a little at the mouth. The other is a tulip glass. It imitates the snifter somewhat but has a stem, is considerably narrower at the bowl, but still rises upward and inward in a very angular way
put your finger horizontally across the bottom of the snifter and pour until it gets to the top of your finger. it's a colloquial term and not necessarily an accurate measurement. Treat yourself generously and pour liberally. Turn the snifter sideways and pour brandy in until its just at the lip of the glass. you should then be able to roll the glass on the table without any liquor spilling out. that's a healthy serving
