Best of all, topographic impressions of famed mountains and peaks—including Mount Everest, the Grand Canyon, Denali, Mount Kilimanjaro, Mount Rainier and Mount Washington—float up from the bottom of each glass. Choose from a range of heavyweight luxury crystal, hand cut Royal Brierley crystal or everyday tumblers to ensure that you will find a whisky glass to suit every taste and sophistication. You can find out more about our use, change your default settings, and withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future by visiting Cookies Settings, which can also be found in the footer of the site. Today the highball is equally popular amongst fans of other simple whisky serves such as whisky and ginger ale or whisky and lemonade.
Plus, the 7-ounce glass’ double-walled design keeps hand heat away from liquid: The round curves of the outer wall nestle the glass comfortably in your hand while the tulip-shaped inner wall focuses and diffuses the aroma to reveal nuanced flavors. Subsequent testing of the peculiarly shaped vessel revealed it was perfectly shaped to direct harsh alcohol vapours away from the nose. For Voisey, Riedel’s 9-ounce heavy-base tumblers are particularly “great for drinking Old Fashioneds or classic whiskey cocktails on the rocks. Some are designed to highlight the spirit, while others are versatile enough for cocktails, neat pours and beyond.But all these opulent associations don’t necessarily make for a superior drinking vessel – the snifter’s extravagantly wide body and tight rim can encourage the release of harsh ethanol vapours, overpowering other aromas.
These elegant glasses were designed in collaboration with Scotch whiskey experts back in 1992 when the Riedel family brought in Scotland’s finest master distillers to help fine-tune every step of the design process.Commonly used for brandy, it’s now very much a glass for the consumption of dark, aged spirits in general. I love a nice sturdy, weighted, cushion-cut crystal rocks glass for whiskey,” says Ryan Maybee, the co-founder of J. I'm quite stuck on the traditional Glencairn glass,” describes Nicole Ross, the head bartender of New York City's The Chester.
Shape doesn’t really matter with the highball, but it wouldn’t do to serve a Scotch and soda in a dimpled pint glass.Choosing the correct whisky glass can really help to improve the drinkers enjoyment and there’s a shape and style of glass for every whisky fan. You can see the spirits well—the glass tapers towards the top to concentrate the smell when you nose it, and the stem removes any unintentional heat to the spirit. Or, “Let's be honest,” says Robin Goodfellow, co-owner of Toronto's PrettyUgly and Bar Raval, “most of the whisk(e)y we consume in our life is from a shot glass. It's also perfect for drinking whiskey straight with its unique 2-ounce pour indicator etch (the top of the triangle at the bottom measures exactly 2 ounces),” adds Voisey. Any type of snifter or Glencairn can be used for tasting, though when it comes to drinking whiskey or Scotch cocktails, the vessel depends on what type of cocktail you’re drinking.
These crystal shot glasses evoke the style of elegant barware, thanks to patterned designs and classic coloring (including pale blue, bright red, rose and grey), yet they boast the fun of a solid shot glass.
These glasses are incredibly durable, so try breaking these out with a rowdier crowd—the weight and cut suggests you’ve broken out your good glassware, but the durability will keep the glass intact until the last drop in the bottle. Our personalised crystal whisky glasses will really show your loved one that you've gone the extra mile for the occasion. It doubles as an excellent vessel for tasting spirits and is large enough to build out Old Fashioneds and other cocktails. This opening is designed to amplify the aromas and flavor characters of the spirit, like the delicate flavors of Japanese whisky, while avoiding the nose-numbing, overpowering ethanol scent.
