GLENCAIRNWhiskey Glass, Set of 6 in Trade Pack

Exactly what you need for a good whiskey. But only for a good one. You can drink a bad one from a simple glass tumbler

Great quality glassware for sipping whisky’s and bourbons. Packaged nicely as well.

I ordered these for as part of a Valentines Day gift for my husband, to go with a nice bottle of bourbon. He started drinking bourbons recently because he has several friends that also enjoy bourbons. I thought these would be nice so when they get together they can have proper tastings. I originally saw these glasses on another site paired with a decanter, I always thought the "correct" glass for bourbons and scotch was a rocks glass, so I started looking into these glasses. They were developed to mimic the tasting glasses that the makers of the spirits use, so it makes sense they are the preferred glass for tasting. The shape is to contain the "nose" of the spirit which is important for taking because in aged spirits much of the taste is contained in the nose. The tulip lip is to thinly place the liquid on the tip of your tongue to pick up subtle notes. These are not for serving "on the rocks" but could be used with a splash of water, which is preferred with some spirits to open up the taste.These glasses come shipped very well and are all in an individual box. They have nice weight to them, not heavy like a rocks glass, but more like a wine glass which, I believe, is so you can swirl the spirits. I know some bourbons require some air, especially some of the higher proofed/long aged types, to improve the initial taste. I think these glasses are lovely and elegant and will sit right in our bar next to our expensive Riedel wine glasses. Do not hesitate to order these for your whiskey/scotch/bourbon drinker.Please note on this option you can choose your quantity- the more you order the less expensive they are per item, so if you need 2 gifts order more and split them because they are packaged individually.

Still gorgeous and look new. Husband still loves these over all other glasses 8-6-21.I had gotten a set of these along with a very nice Scotch for my husband on our 15th anniversary and he LOVED them. We have also taken them to his brother's to drink some of the expensive Whiskey his wife's family had brought from Dubai and they all love them as well. My husband refuses to drink any of his Scotch or Whiskey out of anything but these now and often will still comment on how the glasses really do make a HUGE difference to the drinking experience. Because of this, I bought his father a set for Christmas and he seems to love them just as much.They truly catch the scent of whatever you are drinking out of them and bring it more fully to your nose. The glass is very clear and bright unlike some glasses I have bought which can have a blue or yellow tint. They say they are dishwasher safe and I HATE to do dishes so they have been washed many times in our dishwasher and still look as good as when purchased. These do not come with the glass covers that some people prefer to keep the scent in the glass between sips, but I had no real luck finding any that did come with them and have no idea if they work any better. We are very happy with these and feel they are well worth the price.I purchased the 6 glasses for ourselves and my father-in-law. They came in a Glencairn box and have Glencairn etched on the bottom of each glass.

Love these glasses. Came in early, none were broken. Nothing like a nice glass to complement good whiskey and bourbon

After years of bourbon tastings (and home drinking) I decided to buy these glencairns. Two things: I was drinking less since I was using smaller pours (wife likes that) and it helped enhance my bourbon experience. The size enhances your ability to take in the aroma and get the sensory experience better than an old-fashioned glass, which was what I drank (neat) before. Also, these are handy for doing tastings of multiple bottles, which is why I bought a couple sets. I like to drink my bourbon with friends/family (another excuse to imbibe), so works well with small groups.

Fast shipping, great price and they're exactly as pictured and described.

Bought for my husband for Christmas and he loves it! The quality is very nice! Is dishwasher safe. Glad I went with the 6 pack so that he doesn't have to constantly wash the same glass
